Identification of Knee Bone Attritions in a DICOM MRI using Histogram Oriented Gradients
Abstract
Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) is a standard and becoming popular in the digital
medical imaging field. Several research works have been progressing in the DICOM medical image processing. In this
article, a novel model for detection of knee bone attrition in the DICOM MRI image using Histogram Oriented Gradients is
proposed. The Histogram Oriented Gradients has been proven as a superior feature extractor. In this proposed method, the
medical practitioner receives a DICOM image with various knee bone attrition marked with Green color. The proposed
model is simple and faster. The proposed novel model will assist the physician to diagnose arthritis disease and status of the
arthritis disease using the marked regions of knee bone attritions for further investigations to recommend suitable medical
procedures.
