PALM: Open Fundus Photograph Dataset with Pathologic Myopia Recognition and Anatomical Structure Annotation

Dataset Information

Pathological myopia (PM) is a common blinding retinal degenerative condition among individuals with high myopia. Early screening for this condition can mitigate the damage caused by related fundus pathologies, thereby preventing vision loss. Automated diagnostic tools based on artificial intelligence can assist clinicians in identifying disease indicators or screening large populations using color fundus photographs as input, benefiting this process.

This paper provides insights into PALM, an open fundus imaging dataset designed for pathological myopia identification and anatomical structure annotation. Our database consists of 1,200 images, each labeled with pathological myopia categories, along with manual annotations for the optic disc, macular location, and lesions such as patchy atrophy (including peripapillary atrophy) and retinal detachment. Furthermore, this paper details the annotation process used to construct the database, the quality and characteristics of the samples, and additional usage instructions.

Figure 1. Examples of common retinal lesions in pathological myopia (PM) cases include: (a)Peripapillary atrophy, occurring near the optic disc; (b)Reticular retina, where prominent large choroidal vessels can be observed in the posterior pole of the fundus; (c)Macular hemorrhage, primarily along the fissure itself and at or near the macular center; (d)Retinal atrophy, caused by the migration of degenerated retinal pigment epithelial cells to the inner retinal layers, leading to lesions in and around the affected areas.

Explanation of Columns:

  • Set: Dataset split into training, validation, and testing subsets.
  • Num.: Number of images in each set.
  • PM/Non-PM: Images labeled as Pathological Myopia (PM) or Non-Pathological Myopia (Non-PM).
  • With/Without OD: Images with or without Optic Disc (OD).
  • With/Without Fovea: Images with or without the presence of the fovea.
  • With/Without Detachment: Images with or without retinal detachment.
  • With/Without Atrophy: Images with or without retinal atrophy.
  • Photo Centering: Centering of the photo based on OD, Fovea, or the midpoint between OD and Fovea.
  • Device: Equipment used to capture images (Zeiss or Canon).
