A Novel Algorithm for Kidney Stone Detection Using Image Processing Techniques

Project Code :TMMAIP368

Objective

The main objective of this project is to detect the stones in the kidney by using image processing techniques.

Abstract

Ultrasound imaging is one of the available imaging techniques used for the diagnosis of kidney abnormalities. The detection of kidney stones using ultrasound imaging is a highly challenging task as they are of low contrast and contain speckle noise. This challenge is overcome by employing suitable image processing techniques. This paper presents a technique for the detection of kidney stones through different steps of image processing. The first step is image pre-processing. Image enhancement is a part of preprocessing which is used to enhance the image. Next, the image segmentation is performed on the preprocessed image using the thresholding technique. Finally, the segmented images are analyzed to detect the location of the stone.

Keywords: Ultrasound Imaging, Imaging Techniques, kidney stones, Image Processing.
