Imaging and Predictive Modelling of Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy.

June 30, 2026 updated by: University College, London

Identification of Imaging Biomarkers and Predictive Modelling of Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy Using Deep Learning.

Patients with retinal detachment are at risk of recurrence and failure of surgery requiring multiple surgeries due to a condition called proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR).

Study aims to help tailor patients' treatments and improve outcomes by:

[i] studying imaging biomarkers of PVR, and [ii] develop AI models for PVR detection.

Inclusion:

  • Patients with 'complicated' retinal detachment with PVR recruited to a phase 1 dose-finding trial called MORPH-1.
  • Patients with 'simple' retinal detachment without PVR recruited to a PhD study.

Non -invasive multimodal imaging and anonymized imaging will be used to study imaging biomarkers of PVR and develop deep learning models to predict PVR in collaboration with an artificial intelligence (AI) expert team at UCL Institute of Ophthalmology.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To study multimodal imaging biomarkers of PVR.
Time Frame: Preoperative biomarkers of PVR on cases with established PVR Post-operative biomarkers of PVR on cases that develop PVR in the first 3 months.
Use multimodal imaging namely widefield Optos, Widefield OCT, OCT macula, OCT disc, OCT EDI and OCTA to describe biomarkers of PVR.
Preoperative biomarkers of PVR on cases with established PVR Post-operative biomarkers of PVR on cases that develop PVR in the first 3 months.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To develop deep learning AI models for PVR detection in retinal detachment.
Time Frame: Post-operative 3 months

Use widefield Optos imaging and OCT to:

  • Develop outputs for presence of PVR (binary), and
  • Develop output for prediction of PVR grade.
Post-operative 3 months
