Abstract
A detection algorithm, aimed at separating the foveal avascular zone from the eye background in a numerical angiogram image, is developed. This method is based on the use of a test derived from signal statistical theory. Results show that our approach could be considered as a good computer-assisted tool for location and follow-up of retinal pathologies.
