随着智能手机覆盖率的增加与可用性的提升,实现智能健康管理的应用程序成为新兴研究热点。新一代智能手机可通过追踪步数,监测心率、睡眠,拍摄照片等方式进行健康分析,成为新的医学辅助工具。随着深度学习技术在图像处理领域的不断进展,基于医学影像的智能诊断已在多个学科全面开花,有望彻底改变医院传统的眼科疾病诊疗模式。眼科疾病的常规诊断往往依赖于各种形式的图像,如裂隙灯生物显微镜、眼底成像、光学相干断层扫描等。因此,眼科成为医学人工智能发展最快的领域之一。将眼科人工智能诊疗系统部署在智能手机上,有望提高疾病诊断效率和筛查覆盖率,改善医疗资源紧张的现状,具有极大的发展前景。综述的重点是基于深度学习和智能手机的眼病预防与远程诊疗的进展,以糖尿病性视网膜病变、青光眼、白内障3种疾病为例,讲述深度学习和智能手机在眼病管理方面的具体研究、应用和展望。
With the increasing coverage and availability of smart phones, the application of realizing intelligent health management has become an emerging research hotspot. The new generation of smart phones can perform health analysis by tracking the step numbers, monitoring heart rate and sleep quality, taking photos and other approaches, thereby becoming a new medical aid tool. With the continuous development of deep learning technology in the field of image processing, intelligent diagnosis based on medical imaging has blossomed in many disciplines, which is expected to completely change the traditional eye diseases diagnosis and treatment mode of hospitals. The conventional diagnosis of ophthalmic diseases often relies on various forms of images, such as slit lamp biological microscope, fundus imaging, optical coherence tomography, etc. As a result, ophthalmology has become one of the fastest growing areas of medical artificial intelligence (AI). The deployment of ophthalmological AI diagnosis and treatment system on smart phones is expected to improve the diagnostic efficiency and screening coverage to relieve the strain of medical resources, which has a great development prospect. This review focuses on the prevention and telemedicine progress of eye diseases based on deep learning and smart phones, taking diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma and cataract as examples to describe the specific research, application and prospect of deep learning and smart phones in the management of eye diseases.
目的:评估白内障人工智能辅助诊断系统在社区筛查中的应用效果。方法:采用前瞻性观察性研究方法对白内障人工辅助诊断系统的应用效果进行分析,结合远程医疗的模式,由社区卫生人员对居民进行病史采集、视力检查和裂隙灯眼前节检查等,将数据上传至云平台,由白内障人工智能辅助诊断系统和人类医生依次进行白内障评估。结果:受检人群中男性所占比例为35.7%,年龄中位数为66岁,裂隙灯眼前节照片有98.7%的图像质量合格。该白内障人工智能辅助诊断系统在外部验证集中检出重度白内障的曲线下面积为0.915。在人类医生建议转诊的病例中,有80.3%也由人工智能系统给出了相同的建议。结论:该白内障人工智能辅助诊断系统在白内障社区筛查的应用中具有较好的可行性和准确性,为开展社区筛查疾病提供了参考依据。
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of an artificial intelligence-assisted diagnostic system for cataract screening in community. Methods: A prospective observational study was carried out based on a telemedicine platform. Patient history, medical records and anterior ocular segment images were collected and transmitted from community healthcare centers to Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center for evaluation by both ophthalmologists and artificial intelligence-assisted cataract diagnostic system. Results: Of all enumerated subjects, 35.7% were male and the median age was 66 years old. Of all enumerated slit-lamp images, 98.7% met the requirement of acceptable quality. This artificial intelligence-assisted diagnostic system achieved an AUC of 0.915 for detection of severe cataracts in the external validation dataset. For subjects who were advised to be referred to tertiary hospitals by doctors, 80.3% of them received the same suggestion from this artificial intelligence-assisted diagnostic system.Conclusion: This artificial intelligence-assisted cataract diagnostic system showed high applicability and accuracy in community-based cataract screening and could be a potential model of care in community-based disease screening.
