Abstract

Blood testing is now widely regarded as one of the most important clinical examinations. A blood cell's characteristics (volume, shape, and color) might reveal vital information about a patient's health. On the other hand, inspection process takes time and requires a high level of expertise knowledge. As a result, automated medical diagnosis technologies are needed to help clinicians identify illnesses promptly and reliably. The main objective of normal blood segmentation is just to isolate defective/abnormal units from a complex background and segments them into architectural elements utilizing image processing techniques such as contrast enhancement, thresholding, and morphological procedures, among others. The suggested method here reduces noise and enhances visual segmentation. All previous methods used different segmentation strategies, which resulted in less efficiency than the suggested method. This work can be implemented using MATLAB environment.
