Popis: | OBJECTIVE To compare and quantify the retinal vascular changes induced by non-intentional pressure contact by digital handheld camera during retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) imaging by means of a computer-based image analysis system, Retinal Image multiScale Analysis. METHODS A set of 10 wide-angle retinal pairs of photographs per patient, who underwent routine ROP examinations, was measured. Vascular trees were matched between 'compression artifact' (absence of the vascular column at the optic nerve) and 'not compression artifact' conditions. Parameters were analyzed using a two-level linear model for each individual parameter for arterioles and venules separately: integrated curvature (IC), diameter (d), and tortuosity index (TI). RESULTS Images affected with compression artifact showed significant vascular d (P |
