This study used spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and full-width-at-half-maximum image segmentation to investigate the morphological changes of retinal blood vessels in patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR). Seventy-five patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) without DR and 65 patients with DR were studied. Vascular images of superior temporal region B of the retina were obtained by SD-OCT. The edges of retinal vessels were identified by the full-width-at-half-maximum image segmentation method. The lumen diameter, wall thickness (WT), wall cross-sectional area (WCSA), and wall-to-lumen ratio (WLR) were investigated. We found that, compared with the no diabetic retinopathy (NDR) group, patients in the DR group had an increased retinal arteriolar lumen diameter (RALD), retinal arteriolar outer diameter (RAOD), and WT (128.80 μm versus 104.88 μm; 147.01 μm versus 135.60 μm; 18.29 μm versus 15.26 μm, P |
