Yet, identifying substructural defects in the 3D retinal images is challenging. We therefore present novel visual analytics methods for the exploration of small and localized retinal alterations. Our methods reduce the data complexity and ensure the visibility of relevant information. The results of two cross-sectional studies show that our methods improve the detection of retinal defects, contributing to a deeper understanding of the retinal condition at an early stage of disease. %L 004 %9 theses %9 Text %9 Hochschulschrift %R 10.18453/rosdok_id00002957 %U http://purl.uni-rostock.de/rosdok/id00002957 %U https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-rosdok_id00002957-9 %U https://d-nb.info/129366264X/34 %U https://doi.org/10.18453/rosdok_id00002957
