retinalysis-fundusprep 0.6.1

Easy, robust CFI bounds detection and contrast enhancement

👁️ Retinalysis fundus preprocessing

Fundus / CFI bounds extraction, cropping and contrast enhancement

📦 Installation

pip install retinalysis-fundusprep

Basic usage: running from the command line

We include a command line utility for running fundus preprocessing. The prep command handles both directory and CSV input formats:

fundusprep prep <input_path> [OPTIONS]

Where <input_path> can be either:

• 📁 A directory containing fundus images to process
• 📄 A CSV/TXT file with a 'path' column containing image file paths

If a CSV file is provided and it contains an 'id' column, those values will be used as image identifiers instead of automatically generating them from filenames.

⚙️ Options

• --rgb_path PATH: Directory where processed RGB images will be saved
• --ce_path PATH: Directory where contrast-enhanced images will be saved
• --bounds_path PATH: Path to save a CSV file containing image bounds information
• --n_jobs INTEGER: Number of parallel processing workers (default: 4)

📝 Notes

• All output paths are optional - files will only be written when the corresponding path is provided
• Missing image files will be reported but won't stop the processing of other images
• The bounds CSV contains information about how images were cropped for standardization
• All output images are saved in PNG format with the same filename as the input image.

💡 Examples

Processing Folder with RGB Images

To process a folder of fundus images and save only the RGB versions along with the bounds information:

fundusprep prep ./original_images \
  --rgb_path ./processed_rgb \
  --bounds_path ./metadata/bounds.csv

Processing with Contrast Enhancement

To process images with both RGB and contrast enhancement:

fundusprep prep ./original_images \
  --rgb_path ./processed_rgb \
  --ce_path ./contrast_enhanced \
  --bounds_path ./metadata/bounds.csv

Processing Images Listed in a CSV (No Custom IDs)

Example CSV:

path
/data/images/patient1.jpg
/data/images/patient2.jpg
/data/images/patient3.png

To process images listed in a CSV file:

fundusprep prep ./image_list.csv \
  --rgb_path ./processed_rgb \
  --ce_path ./contrast_enhanced \
  --bounds_path ./metadata/bounds.csv

The outputs will use the same filenames as the input images. For example, the RGB output for /data/images/patient2.jpg will be ./preprocessed_rgb/patient2.png. Note that all outputs will be stored in a single folder, and therefore filenames should be unique. If filenames are not unique, use custom image IDs.

Using Custom Image IDs

The CSV file must include:

• A path column with absolute or relative paths to the image files
• an id column to specify custom identifiers for each image

Example CSV:

path,id
/data/images/patient1.jpg,P1_left
/data/images/patient2.jpg,P2_right

Processing is done in the same way:

fundusprep prep ./patient_images.csv \
  --rgb_path ./processed_rgb \
  --ce_path ./contrast_enhanced \
  --bounds_path ./metadata/bounds.csv

The RGB output for /data/images/patient2.jpg will be ./preprocessed_rgb/P2_right.png.
