As a new optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging modality, there is no standardized quantitative interpretation of OCT angiography (OCTA) characteristics of sickle cell retinopathy (SCR). This study is to demonstrate computer-aided SCR classification using quantitative OCTA features, i.e., blood vessel tortuosity (BVT), blood vessel diameter (BVD), vessel perimeter index (VPI), foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area, FAZ contour irregularity, parafoveal avascular density (PAD). It was observed that combined features show improved classification performance, compared to single feature. Three classifiers, including support vector machine (SVM), k-nearest neighbor (KNN) algorithm, and discriminant analysis, were evaluated. Sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were quantified to assess the performance of each classifier. For SCR vs. control classification, all three classifiers performed well with an average accuracy of 95% using the six quantitative OCTA features. For mild vs. severe stage retinopathy classification, SVM shows better (97% accuracy) performance, compared to KNN algorithm (95% accuracy) and discriminant analysis (88% accuracy).
