“Diseases of the human eye can affect a wide variety of people and early and precise diagnosis is critical to ensure that vision loss is prevented in due time,” said Sumeet Dua, MD, the Upchurch Endowed professor of computer science and coordinator of information technology research at Louisiana Tech University in the release.  “This book will expose eye care practitioners to carefully selected highlights of computational decision support technologies that are rapidly maturing and finding their way into clinics to provide enhanced ophthalmological care.”

The book was co-edited by Dr. Dua, Rajendra Acharya of the University of Ngee Ann Polytechnic Institute in Singapore and E. Y. K. Ng of Nanyang Technological University in Singapore.
