Popis: Medical imaging is the practice of visualizing internal human body parts in order to make diagnoses. The discipline of medicine now relies heavily on medical imaging as a tool. Digital image processing and pattern recognition techniques in medical imaging aid in the detection of eye disorders. Changes in retinal Blood Vessels (BVs) are used in retinal image analysis to help diagnose retinal vascular illnesses such Diabetic Retinopathy (DR), Macular Edema, and Glaucoma. The retinal blood vessels are given a brief introduction in this review paper, along with a detailed description of the methods/techniques utilised to segment the retinal blood vessels. This paper also discusses the difficulties in segmenting BVs.
