RESUMO
AIM: To summarize the application of deep learning in detecting ophthalmic disease with ultrawide-field fundus images and analyze the advantages, limitations, and possible solutions common to all tasks. METHODS: We searched three academic databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, and Ovid, with the date of August 2022. We matched and screened according to the target keywords and publication year and retrieved a total of 4358 research papers according to the keywords, of which 23 studies were retrieved on applying deep learning in diagnosing ophthalmic disease with ultrawide-field images. RESULTS: Deep learning in ultrawide-field images can detect various ophthalmic diseases and achieve great performance, including diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, retinal vein occlusions, retinal detachment, and other peripheral retinal diseases. Compared to fundus images, the ultrawide-field fundus scanning laser ophthalmoscopy enables the capture of the ocular fundus up to 200° in a single exposure, which can observe more areas of the retina. CONCLUSION: The combination of ultrawide-field fundus images and artificial intelligence will achieve great performance in diagnosing multiple ophthalmic diseases in the future.
