FUNDUS DRAWING ANALYSIS IN OPHTHALMOLOGICAL DIAGNOSTICS
First Claim
1. A fundus drawing analysis for ophthalmological diagnostics method comprising:
- specifying in a user interface of a medical image processing host computing system comprising memory and at least one processor, a set of ophthalmological pathological features of an eye;
generating a database query with the specified set;
submitting the database query to a database of ophthalmological meta-data regarding different fundus images generated for different eyes;
retrieving in response to the querying a sub-set of the ophthalmological meta-data;
identifying ones of the different fundus images corresponding to the sub-set of the ophthalmological meta-data;
retrieving the identified ones of the different fundus images; and
,displaying the retrieved fundus images in the user interface of the medical image processing host computing system along with a statistical indication of a number of each of the ophthalmological pathological features present in the retrieved fundus images.

Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for fundus drawing analysis in ophthalmological diagnostics. A fundus drawing analysis for ophthalmological diagnostics method includes first specifying a set of ophthalmological pathological features of an eye and then generating a database query with the specified set. Thereafter, the database query may be submitted to a database of ophthalmological meta-data regarding different fundus images generated for different eyes so as to retrieve a sub-set of the ophthalmological meta-data. Then, those of the different fundus images that correspond to the sub-set are identified and the identified different fundus images are retrieved. Finally, the retrieved fundus images are displayed in a user interface of a medical image processing host computing system along with a statistical indication of a number of each of the ophthalmological pathological features present in the retrieved fundus images.
