However, the current workforce available for this task falls significantly short compared to the volume of images requiring assessment. This places a considerable burden on the medical system during diagnosis. Additionally, medical images often contain artifacts, further complicating and prolonging the diagnostic process. This thesis serves as a solution to expedite diagnosis by enhancing the image quality of Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA) images, thereby alleviating the strain on the system. Aims: 1. Method 1 (Chapter 2): Removal of motion artifacts from OCTA images. It is one of the toughest artifacts to be removed from an image. 2. Method 2 (Chapter 3): Super-Resolution of OCTA image. Increasing the dimensions of the image and enhancing the quality to make diagnosis process efficient. Conclusion: This work allows the removal of motion artifacts from the OCTA image and then enhance the quality of the image using super-resolution. In chapter 4 we show that the scatterplots were used to compare the correlations of the most commonly used parameters, Foveal Avascular Zone (FAZ) area, perimeter, and circularity index, between before and after super-resolution at ×2 and ×3 magnification. A p-value < 0.05 was considered significant for all statistical tests. Thus, making the diagnosis process simpler and better for medical practitioners.enOCTAsuper-resolutioncomputer visionAINew method to improve the diagnostic utility of OCTA images in retinal diseaseMaster Thesis
