Image Processing Using Color and Object Information for Wireless Capsule Endoscopy
نویسندگان
چکیده
Wireless capsule endoscopy provides real-time images in the digestive tract. Capsule images are usually low resolution and are diverse images due to travel through various regions of human body. Color information has been a primary reference in predicting abnormalities such as bleeding. Often color is not sufficient for this purpose. In this study, we took morphological shapes into account as additional, but important criterion. First, we processed gastric images in order to indentify various objects in the image. Then, we analyzed color information in the object. In this way, we could remove unnecessary information and increase the accuracy. Compared to our previous investigations, we could handle images of various degrees of brightness and improve our diagnostic algorithm. Keywords—Capsule Endoscopy, HSV model, Image processing, Object Identification, Color Separation.

Detecting Informative Frames from Wireless Capsule Endoscopic Video Using Color and Texture Features
Despite emerging technology, wireless capsule endoscopy needs high amount of diagnosis-time due to the presence of many useless frames, created by turbid fluids, foods, and faecal materials. These materials and fluids present a wide range of colors and/or bubble-like texture patterns. We, therefore, propose a cascade method for informative frame detection, which uses local color histogram to is...

متن کاملAnalyzing Gastrointestinal Tissue Images using Multiple Features
Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) uses a pill size capsule which is easily swallowed by patients. WCE comes with wireless power transmission, allowing images to be recorded into a hard disk for later analysis by a doctor. Automated image analysis algorithms can be used to help doctors detecting abnormal patterns and to identify the various segments of the gastrointestinal tract. This type of ana...

This paper deals with processing of wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) images from gastrointestinal tract, by extracting textural features and developing a suitable classifier to recognize as a normal or abnormal /tumor image. Images obtained from WCE are prone to noise. To reduce the noise, filtration technique is used. The quality of the filtered image is degraded, so to enhance the quality of ...
متن کاملSegmentation of Bleeding Regions in Wireless Capsule Endoscopy Images an Approach for inside Capsule Video Summarization
Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) is an effective means of diagnosis of gastrointestinal disorders. Detection of informative scenes by WCE could reduce the length of transmitted videos and can help with the diagnosis. In this paper we propose a simple and efficient method for segmentation of the bleeding regions in WCE captured images. Suitable color channels are selected and classified by a mul...
