Abstract

In medical imaging, the scope of image enhancement is highly challenging. Here digital chest x –ray image are taken in a spatial domain and enhancement of the image is done through histogram equalization method. Histogram equalization is a specific case of the more general class of histogram methods. Histogram Equalization works the best when applied to images with much higher color depth like continuos data or 16 bit gray scale images. In particular, the method can lead to better views of bone structure in X-ray images that are either over or under exposed. An algorithm is proposed to enhance the chest x-ray images using Global Histogram Equalization.
