Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF GRAY LEVEL CO-OCCURRENCE MATRIX TEXTURE FEATURES FOR GLAUCOMA DIAGNOSISSakthivel Karthikeyan, N. RengarajanGlaucoma is a multifactorial optic neuropathy disease characterized by elevated Intra Ocular Pressure (IOP). As the visual loss caused by the disease is irreversible, early detection is essential. Fundus images are used as input and it is preprocessed using histogram equalization. First order features from histogram and second order features from Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) are extracted from the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 24 Dec 2013 · 7,332 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSPECTRAL DOMAIN FEATURES FOR OVARIAN CANCER DATA ANALYSISAhmed Farag Seddik, Riham Amin Hassan, Mahmoud A. FakhreldeinThe early detection of cancer is crucial for successful treatment. Medical researchers have investigated a number of early-diagnosis techniques. Recently, they have discovered that some cancers affect the concentration of certain molecules in the blood, which allows early diagnosis by analyzing the blood mass spectrum. Researchers have developed several techniques for the analysis of the mass-spectrum curve analysis and used … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 9 Jul 2013 · 6,920 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of enzyme Immunoassay with Immunofluorescence Assay for the Diagnosis of Mycoplasma pneumoniae Respiratory Tract Infections in ChildrenOsama Mohammed Saed Abdul-WahabMycoplasma pneumoniae is a frequent cause of acute respiratory infections in both children and adults. Currently, diagnosis of M. pneumoniae infection will based principally on serology and the detection of IgM can provide an early and sensitive diagnosis in children. A variety of commercial immunodiagnostic assays, such as Indirect Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent (ELISA) assay and Indirect Immunofluorescence (IFA), are now available … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 21 Jun 2013 · 7,416 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy Using Texture SegmentationG. Tamil Pavai, S. Tamil SelviIn this study, it is proposed fast texture segmentation of detection of proliferative diabetic retinopathy. proliferative diabetic retinopathy is characterized by the revascularization on the optic disc or on the retinal area or both, as a result of diabetes mellitus. It may leads to the blindness if it is not detected and treated in proper time. This study proposes a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 26 Apr 2013 · 6,322 accessesView PDFCite
