Identifying Peripheral Neuropathy in Colour Fundus Photographs Based on Deep Learning
The aim of this study was to develop and validate a deep learning-based system to detect peripheral neuropathy (DN) from retinal colour images in people with diabetes. Retinal images from 1561 people with diabetes were used to predictDN diagnosed on vibration perception threshold. A total of 189 had...

| Sumario: | The aim of this study was to develop and validate a deep learning-based system to detect peripheral neuropathy (DN) from retinal colour images in people with diabetes. Retinal images from 1561 people with diabetes were used to predictDN diagnosed on vibration perception threshold. A total of 189 had diabetic retinopathy (DR), 276 had DN, and 43 had both DR and DN. 90% of the images were used for training and validation and 10% for testing. Deep neural networks, including Squeezenet, Inception, and Densenet were utilized, and the architectures were tested with and without pre-trained weights. Random transform of images was used during training. The algorithm was trained and tested using three sets of data: all retinal images, images without DR and images with DR. Area under the ROC curve (AUC) was used to evaluate performance. The AUC to predict DN on the whole cohort was 0.8013 (±0.0257) on the validation set and 0.7097 (±0.0031) on the test set. The AUC increased to 0.8673 (±0.0088) in the presence of DR. The retinal images can be used to identify individuals with DN and provides an opportunity to educate patients about their DN status when they attend DR screening. |
