Ensemble of deep convolutional neural networks for automatic pavement crack detection and measurement

Automated pavement crack detection and measurement are important road issues. Agencies have to guarantee the improvement of road safety. Conventional crack detection and measurement algorithms can be extremely time-consuming and low efficiency. Therefore, recently, innovative algorithms have received increased attention from researchers. In this paper, we propose an ensemble of convolutional neural networks (without a pooling layer) based on probability fusion for automated pavement crack detection and measurement.

Macular ganglion cell layer thickness after macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment repair: scleral buckling versus pars plana vitrectomy

(1) Background: We evaluated macular ganglion cell layer-inner plexiform layer (GCL-IPL) thickness in patients with primary macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) treated with scleral buckling (SB) or pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). (2) Methods: In this retrospective, observational study, we reviewed the medical records of patients undergoing SB or PPV surgery for macula-off RRD. SD-OCT was performed at three and 12 months after surgery.

Extraocular muscle sampled volume in Graves' orbitopathy using 3-T fast spin-echo MRI with iterative decomposition of water and fat sequences

Abstract
Background: Current magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques for measuring extraocular muscle (EOM) volume
enlargement are not ideally suited for routine follow-up of Graves’ ophthalmopathy (GO) because the difficulty of
segmenting the muscles at the tendon insertion complicates and lengthens the study protocol.
Purpose: To measure the EOM sampled volume (SV) and assess its correlation with proptosis.
Material and Methods: A total of 37 patients with newly diagnosed GO underwent 3-T MRI scanning with iterative
