Recent studies suggest that early stages of diabetic retinopathy (DR) can be diagnosed by monitoring vascular changes in the deep vascular complex. In this work, we investigate a novel method for automated DR grading based on ultra-wide optical coherence tomography angiography (UW-OCTA) images. Our work combines OCTA scans with their vessel segmentations, which then serve as inputs to task specific networks for lesion segmentation, image quality assessment and DR grading. For this, we generate synthetic OCTA images to train a segmentation network that can be directly applied on real OCTA data. We test our approach on MICCAI 2022’s DR analysis challenge (DRAC). In our experiments, the proposed method performs equally well as the baseline model.
