Abstract

During lab tests, thousands of medical images are generated to trace the disease's symptoms. Manual interpretation of this data may consume excessive time and thus may delay diagnosis. Timely detection of critical diseases is very important as their stage can be changed over an interval. Automated analysis of medical data can reduce the gap between disease detection and its diagnosis and it also reduces the overall computational cost. In this paper, this goal will be achieved using different methods (Classification/ Segmentation/ Image Encoding/ Decoding/ Registration/ Restoration/ Morphology).
