Summary: | This paper discusses on a feature extraction of
pus cell in sputum slide image. This invention is
developed to analyze and count the content of cells
specifically pus cell within a biological sample, and
more particularly sputum sample which is useful for
sputum quality grading. This pus cell detection is
addressed by mean intensity and area for single and
overlapping pus cells. It is found that mean intensity
and area for single pus cell are ranges from 130 - 163
and 35 - 81 respectively. Whereas, with considering
other elements exist in sputum image such as epithelial
cells and artifacts, the mean intensity for overlapping
pus cells are ranges from 130 – 45 with area of 65 –
300. This system reliability is above 80% from the
validation results. |
