    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for acquiring a retina structure from an optical coherence tomographic image and a system thereof. The method comprises: calculating a region of interest (ROI) image of a source image; performing a Gaussian filtering of the ROI image; calculating a first estimated boundary position of a first layer boundary and a second estimated boundary position of a second layer boundary using a multi-resolution method; refining the first layer boundary and the second layer boundary respectively using a simplified active contour model according to the first estimated boundary position and the second estimated boundary position, to obtain a first initial boundary position of the first layer boundary and a second initial boundary position of the second layer boundary; smoothing the first initial boundary position and the second initial boundary position using a filtering method; acquiring segmentation positions of rest layer boundaries in the ROI image according to a segmented position of the first layer boundary and a segmented position of the second layer boundary. The present disclosure can improve the calculation speed and reduce the calculation complexity while maintaining high location accuracy.
