Recently proposed deep learning (DL) algorithms for the segmentation of optical coherence
tomography (OCT) images to quantify the morphological changes to the optic nerve head
(ONH) tissues during glaucoma have limited clinical adoption due to their device specific
nature and the difficulty in preparing manual segmentations (training data). We propose a

Recently proposed deep learning (DL) algorithms for the segmentation of optical coherence tomography (OCT) images to quantify the morphological changes to the optic nerve head (ONH) tissues during glaucoma have limited clinical adoption due to their device specific nature and the difficulty in preparing manual segmentations (training data). We propose a DL-based 3D segmentation framework that is easily translatable across OCT devices in a label-free manner (i.e. without the need to manually re-segment data for each device). Specifically, we developed 2 sets of DL networks: the ‘enhancer’ (enhance OCT image quality and harmonize image characteristics from 3 devices) and the ‘ONH-Net’ (3D segmentation of 6 ONH tissues). We found that only when the ‘enhancer’ was used to preprocess the OCT images, the ‘ONH-Net’ trained on any of the 3 devices successfully segmented ONH tissues from the other two unseen devices with high performance (Dice coefficients > 0.92). We demonstrate that is possible to automatically segment OCT images from new devices without ever needing manual segmentation data from them.
