Data Science & Artificial Intelligence

Combining imaging with AI and informatics

Learn more

Ophthalmic reading centres provide a critical resource for facilitating imaging research in ophthalmology. Recent developments in computer vision and artificial intelligence have enabled a paradigm shift in the role of reading centres. Moorfields reading centre has developed a dedicated infrastructure to allow harnessing the potential of big data analytics, computer vision and machine learning.

AlzEye

AlzEye is an unprecedented data linkage project linking >2 million retinal photos and scans of >250,000 people, who attended Moorfields Eye Hospital between 2008 and 2018 with nationally held data (NHS Digital) on people, who develop Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. Led by Dr Pearse Keane & Dr Siegfried Wagner, AlzEye provides a tailored unique dataset to explore patterns of retinal change associated with the development of dementia across a diverse population of varying ethnicity and socioeconomic status.
