Different techniques developed in the
previous decades are used for blood vessel detection. Different kinds of image
processing approaches in the detection and analysis of blood vessels can be
applied to diagnose many human diseases and help in various medical and health
diagnoses. Image processing for blood vessels could be used in areas such as
disease diagnosis, severity measurement of specific diseases, and in biometric
security.



This study compares two different
techniques to accurately diagnose a specific disease according to some
selective features. Diabetic retinopathy is used for this comparative study as
it is one of the most severe eye disorders and chronic diseases to cause
blindness. Classifications and accurate measurements for blood vessel
abnormalities (exudates, hemorrhages, and micro-aneurysms) enabled the correct
and accurate diagnosis in retina and diabetic retinopathy. To avoid blindness,
it is essential to utilize fundus image processing application to facilitate
the early discovery of a diseased retinal. Throughout the fundus automated
image process, the retinal features are extracted. The techniques applied in
this study are a morphological-based image processing technique and an edge
detection technique using Kirsch’s template. First, the application of these
image processing techniques are described and explained in detail.
Subsequently, a classification process is proposed to assess and evaluate the
performance of each technique.
