Introducing RETFound, a foundation model for ophthalmology
We’re super excited about this and hope it will act as a #Cornerstone for global efforts to prevent blindness through #AI
Trained on ~1.6 million retinal images, using self-supervised learning and transformer architecture
Fine tuned for 10+ downstream clinical tasks, from #DiabeticRetinopathy and #Glaucoma detection, to prediction of #AMD , to #oculomics (stroke, Parkinson’s, heart attacks)
