Abstract

Choroidal Neovascularization (CNV) is an age related disease which deals with the Degeneration of Macular tissue. This degeneration causes acute drop in central vision as the age progresses. Therefore it is necessary to identify the changes caused by CNV for the Successful detection of this disease. In CNV the Retinal Pigment Epithelial (RPE) layer encounters changes in different attributes which can be identified with the help of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) Images. This paper focuses on analyzing the changes caused in the RPE layer due to CNV. The proposed system segments out RPE layer and observes the changes in RPE layer by calculating different features like Euler Number, Energy, Homogeneity and Correlation. The system is tested on locally gathered dateset of 50 images from different patients and has achieved an accuracy of 98%.
