| description | Spleen ultrasound screening was rarely used because usually people will scan their body thoroughly using CT scan or x-ray to observe any abnormalities. However, it is a fact that ultrasound machine is far safer than any other imaging modalities, and it can be used to scan any parts of the body except for hard tissue such as bone. In this paper, we proposed an approach to obtain spleen ultrasound image and perform image quality enhancement so that the image of spleen is clearer and easier to analyze. The used method is Region of Interest based image filtering using a MATLAB. The Graphical User Interface (GUI) of the work is also created to have user friendly analysis. This approach is really suitable for new learners to learn one of the biomedical image processing techniques. From the results, it shows that this method can enhance the image quality especially at the region of interest specified. |
