چکیده

In order to improve medical image visual quality, this paper presents a new method for unsharp masking for edge preservation and contrast enhancement of an image. Our approach employs a classical unsharp mask filter for the enhancement of the medical images, which will not only preserve the edge but also maintain the contrast that is suitable for body part. Image Enhancement transforms images to provide better representation of the subtle details. It is an indispensable tool for researchers in a wide variety of fields including medical imaging, art studies, forensics and atmospheric sciences.

An Enhancement of Classical Unsharp Mask filter for Contrast and Edge Preservation

Various images are low quality, difficult to detect and extract information. Therefore, enhancement of contrast and Sharpness of an image is required in many applications. Unsharp masking is a good tool for sharpness enhancement: it is an anti-blurring filter. By using Unsharp masking algorithm for sharpness enhancement, the resultant image suffering with two problems, first one is halo appears...

Biomedical Image Denoising Based on Hybrid Optimization Algorithm and Sequential Filters

Background: Nowadays, image de-noising plays a very important role in medical analysis applications and pre-processing step. Many filters were designed for image processing, assuming a specific noise distribution, so the images which are acquired by different medical imaging modalities must be out of the noise. Objectives: This study has focused on the sequence filters which are selected ...

A Novel Fingerprint Enhancement Algorithm Using Curve Mask

Fingerprint image enhancement is an essential preprocessing step in fingerprint recognition applications. In this paper, a Separable Gabor filter with Bresenham (SGB) is introduced for fast fingerprint enhancement. A Curve Mask Gabor (CMG) is designed to improve the performance of SGB. Experiments are performed on FVC2004. Results indicate that the SGB can significantly reduce computational com...
