Abstract

An important requirement for clinical diagnosis and treatment is a platform for medical image processing technique that is more flexible and accurate. An interactive image processing method that can be used as a Computer Aided Detection (CAD) tool for medical image processing is proposed in this paper. The tool is developed in MATLAB to read images of different formats like tif, jpg, DICOM etc. The tool is also capable of displaying information about the loaded image of the selected format, read and save images from and to workspace. In addition to this user can use functional tools like determining the value of pixel in the image, obtain histogram, horizontal and vertical profiles of selected lines of the image, color maps of CT window that include CT bone, CT spine, CT mediastinal, auto adjustment of global intensity and selective intensity, image smoothening, manual and auto thresholding. All the mentioned functions are integrated in Graphical User Interface which is user friendly.
