Implementation of a Quality Index for Improvement of Quantification of Corneal Nerves in Corneal Confocal Microscopy Images: A Multicenter Study
Purpose:Corneal confocal microscopy (CCM) is an imaging method to detect loss of nerve fibers in the cornea. The impact of image quality on the CCM parameters has not been investigated. We developed a quality index (QI) with 3 stages for CCM images and compared the influence of the image quality on
