Abstract
Without additional training, retina specialists may be the most reliable personnel to interpret single-field digital fundus images for diabetic retinopathy screening. For other ophthalmic care personnel to achieve comparable reliability, a comprehensive instruction course with specific continuing education is essential. Authorized nonphysician interpreters should be experts, and new standard photographs for single-field digital fundus image interpretation may also be required to improve interobserver reliability.
