Information from the tracing algorithm (IUS) and the change classifier are combined to get the likelihood functions.

Only a few methods have been described for quantifying the dynamic nature of diabetic retinopathy from a time series of retinal images. Cree et al. [1, 2] detect microaneurysms from a region of interest around the fovea from images at distinct time points and compare them to find changes. Studies of microaneurysm turnover were also made by Goatman et al. [3]. They detected microaneurysms from baseline and follow-up angiograms, registered the images and categorized the microaneurysms into three classes namely, static, new and regressed. Sbeh and Cohen [4] segment drusen based on a morphological method called geodesic reconstruction and study the evolution of drusen over time..All these methods have the limitation that they handle only a certain kind of lesion and also the changes are obtained from individual segmentation of the images. The present work contributes multiple advances over the above literature, overcoming many of the noted limitations. The net result is an algorithm and a systematic non-limiting framework that allows a broad range of longitudinal changes to be detected and classified with a high degree of reliability.
