Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) The purpose of this study is to develop a computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system for early detection of arteriolar narrowing on retinal images. In this study, blood vessels were detected using the black top hat transformation and a double ring filter, and major arteries and veins were classified by linear discriminant analysis using RGB components of blood vessel regions. As a result, the classification accuracy of major arteries and veins was 88.2%. In addition, major arteries and veins that run parallel to each other were selected for evaluation of arteriolar narrowing, and A/V (artery and vein) ratios were calculated based on their diameters. The average error±standard deviation of the proposed method was 0.06±0.05.
