Detection of Abnormality in Endoscopic Images using Endoscopic Technique

Abstract

Medical imaging has been undergoing a revolution in the past decade with the advent of faster, more accurate and less invasive devices. This has driven the need for corresponding software development which in turn has provided a major impetus for new algorithms in signal and image processing. Digital image processing is important for many biomedical applications. The medical images analyzed, used as diagnostic tools and quite often provide insight into the inner working of the process under study. The commonly found abnormalities in endoscopic images are cancer tumors, ulcers, bleeding due to internal injuries, etc. The segmented method is used to segment the tumor, abnormal regions and cancerous growth in the human esophagus. In our proposed work, a method for detecting possible presence of abnormality in the endoscopic images is presented. An algorithm is to develop to perform the segmentation, classification and analysis of medical images, especially the endoscopic images for the identification of commonly occurring abnormalities in it.
