Development of fully automated anterior chamber cell analysis based on image software

Abstract Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noninvasive method that can quickly and accurately examine the eye at the cellular level. Several studies have used OCT for analysis of anterior chamber cells. However, these studies have several limitations. This study was performed to supplement exi...
