[02201] Total Variation and Undecimated Wavelet Approach to Chest Radiograph Image Enhancement
Session Time & Room : 3C (Aug.23, 13:20-15:00) @E820
Type : Contributed Talk
Abstract : ABSTRACT
Medical images are often corrupted by white noise, blurring and contrast defects. Consequently, important medical information may be degraded or completely masked. In this talk, I will discuss recent advances in the implementation of a total variation method and an undecimated wavelet image enhancing algorithm, as well as morphological techniques such as closing, thinning and pruning combined with wavelets methods, to improve the image quality and to extract target features from chest radiographs.
