Abstract:
Provided are a method and system for identifying and classifying the owner, age and health of an optic nerve head and its vasculature based on analysis of vector relationships of blood vessels and the neuroretinal rim within an image of the optic nerve head to each other.

Claim (Index 8):
The method of  claim 1 , comprising, for each segment:\n superimposing multiple concentric circles on the segment; determining intersection points of the circles with blood vessels and branches thereof and intersection points between the blood vessels and branches thereof and the neuroretinal rim fibres; mapping vectors between the intersection points; determining distances of the vectors; determining ratios of the vector distances; combining sequences and/or permutations of the ratios into an image representation; searching a lookup table for the closest representation to the image representation; and classifying the optic nerve head according to the closest representation found.
