Abstract :
This paper describes a research software application specifically developed to assist ophthalmologists in performing retinal image analysis. The application provides powerful tools for automatic detection of lesions and anatomical structures as well as image registration and fusion, which are novel methods in ophthalmology. Usability is also a key strength of the application: wizards guide the user through the tasks to be carried out.
