Purpose: This article is a scoping review of published and peer-reviewed articles using deep-learning (DL) applied to ultra-wide eld (UWF) imaging. This study provides an overview of the published uses of DL and UWF imaging for the detection of ophthalmic and systemic diseases, generative image synthesis, quality assessment of images, and segmentation and localization of ophthalmic image features. Methods: A literature search was performed up to August 31st, 20201 using PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar. The inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) Deep Learning, (2) Ultra-Wide eld Imaging. The exclusion criteria were as follows: (1) articles published in any language other than English, (2) articles not peer-reviewed (usually preprints) (3) no full-text availability (4) articles using machine learning algorithms other than deep learning. No study design was excluded from consideration.Results: A total of 36 studies were included. 23 studies discussed ophthalmic disease detection and classi cation, 5 discussed segmentation and localization of UWF images, 3 discussed generative image synthesis, 3 discussed ophthalmic image quality assessment, and 2 discussed detecting systemic diseases via UWFI. Conclusion:The application of DL to UWFI has demonstrated signi cant effectiveness in the diagnosis and detection of ophthalmic diseases including diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachment, and glaucoma. DL has been used with UWFI to also diagnose systemic diseases like Alzheimer's, and also applied in the generation of synthetic ophthalmic images. This scoping review highlights and discusses the current uses of DL with UWFI, and the future of DL applications in this eld.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
