Haneen Alfauri presented and led a thought-provoking discussion on AVA-Net, a powerful new retinal blood vessel analysis tool.
Through her presentation, Haneen demonstrated how AVA-Net enables clearer visualization and differentiation of arteries, veins, and even the tiniest capillaries in OCTA (Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography) images. She emphasized the model’s potential to reveal subtle changes in blood flow patterns, which could signal early stages of eye diseases like Diabetic Retinopathy and Age-related Macular Degeneration. By guiding the discussion, Haneen helped the group delve into how AVA-Net’s precision could support earlier diagnosis and improved treatment options, potentially safeguarding vision in at-risk patients.
