About this study

Official title: Automatic vs. Manual Optic Cup and Optic Disc Segmentation in Glaucoma

Manually and automatically by mashing learning algorithm optic disc will be evaluated (planimetry).

Read the detailed description

Cross-Over non-randomized Case-Series. Arm 1 (Manual segmentation): Manually marking of the boundaries of the optic disc and it's excavation on color photographs of the optic disc. Arm 2 (Automated segmentation): Automatic detection of the boundaries of the optic disc and it's excavation. Calculation of cup size, size of excavation, cup-to-disc ratio, and rim area. Comparison of all parameters of both arms and computing of agreement.

Being tested
manual planimetry, automated planimetry
Medical subject headings
Glaucoma, Open-Angle

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Open Angle Glaucoma, run by University of Zurich.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

agreement measured by kappa statistics (time frame: Baseline visit in the outpatient department). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02438319, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Mar 2020.
