| contents | Diabetic macular edema (DME) is a severe complication of diabetes, characterized by thickening of the central portion of the retina due to accumulation of fluid. DME is a significant and common cause of visual impairment in diabetic patients. Center-involved DME (ci-DME) is the highest risk form of disease because fluid extends close to the fovea which is responsible for sharp central vision. Earlier diagnosis or prediction of ci-DME may improve treatment outcomes. Here, we propose an ensemble method to predict ci-DME onset within a year, after using synthetic ultra-wide field color fundus photography (UWF-CFP) images provided by the DIAMOND Challenge during development. We adopted a variety of baseline state-of-the-art classification networks including ResNet, DenseNet, EfficientNet, and VGG with the aim of enhancing model robustness. The best performing models were Densenet-121, Resnet-152 and EfficientNet-b7, and these were assembled into a definitive predictive model. The final ensemble model demonstrates a strong performance with an Area Under Curve (AUC) of 0.7017, an F1 score of 0.6512, and an Expected Calibration Error (ECE) of 0.2057 when deployed on the synthetic test dataset. Results from our ensemble model were superior/comparable to previous recorded results in highly curated settings using conventional fundus photography/ultra-wide field fundus photography. Optimal sensitivity in previous studies (using humans or computers to diagnose) ranges from 67.3%-98%, specificity from 47.8%-80%. Therefore, our method can be used safely and effectively in a range of settings may facilitate earlier diagnosis, better treatment decisions, and improved prognostication in ci-DME. |
