摘要:Medical images, such as CT scan, MRI, X-ray, mammography and fundus are commonly used in medical diagnosis process and helpful to improve diagnose of disease in a better way and reduces the chances of ambiguous perceptions. Medical images are mostly available in low contrast, brightness and noisy form due to camera/ radio waves intrinsic properties while capturing, which disrupts the diagnosis process using medical images. Enhancement of these images can improve the diagnosis process. The proposed enhancement technique of fundus images is based on the B-spline interpolation, in which intensity transformation curve is based on the control points of the curve. Messidore and Drive datasets of Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) are used to evaluate the proposed enhancement technique. Results shows that the fundus images have reasonable visual and quantitative enhancement when performed comparison with recent techniques. Results are of evidence that the proposed approach has substantial outcome and preserves important information of fundus images by lowering noise.
