Abstract Quantitative imaging using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) could provide objective tools for the detection and characterization of diabetic retinopathy (DR). In this study, an operator combining the second derivative and Gaussian multiscale convolution is applied to identify the retinal orientation at each pixel in the OCTA image. We quantified the pattern of retinal vascular orientation and developed three novel quantitative metrics including vessel preferred orientation, vessel anisotropy, and vessel area. Each of eight 45º sectors of the circular disk centered at the macular region was defined as the region of interest. Significant sectoral differences were observed in the preferred orientation (p 0.97, p |
