A Preprocessing Algorithm Based on Heterogeneity Detection for Transmitted Tissue Image

Abstract

In hyperspectral transmission imaging (mainly refers to transmission breast imaging), the strong scattering characteristics of the tissue cause the blurred image and weak image signal, which hinders heterogeneity detection in tissue. In this paper, we designed the simulation experiment of collecting phantom images, and a joint preprocessing algorithm suitable for transmission tissue image is proposed and verified: the algorithm combining single channel frame accumulation and edge enhancement algorithm. The result shows that the PSNR of the phantom image is increased to 57.3 dB and the edge of phantom image processed by the joint preprocessing algorithm is preserved; the standard deviation is 19.8998 higher than original image, that is, the contrast is greatly improved. In our previous work, the detection accuracy of the image processed by this algorithm is higher than that without processed when the image detected in object detection algorithm based on deep learning; the mAP reaches 99.9%. Therefore, the preprocessing algorithm in this paper provides a highly compatible and easier preprocessing method for heterogeneity detection of multispectral tissue images, which improves the detection accuracy of heterogeneity to some extent. And it may be a new way to improve the quality of such multispectral and hyperspectral transmission tissue images.
