Abstract :
An approach to the generation of super-resolution (SR) images from fundoscopy images is proposed that is based on the 3D registration of the original fundoscopy images. The proposed approach utilizes a simple 3D registration method to enable the application of conventional SR techniques which, otherwise, employ 2D image registration. Qualitative and quantitative comparative evaluation shows that the obtained results improve image definition and alleviate noise.
