Abstract

Research based on digital image analysis is widely used in medical diagnostics. This allows you to study the problem in detail and possibly without surgical intervention. We can get information about the microcosm and justify the necessary treatment options. Such a study of the task at hand also contributes to obtaining additional information as a result of a more detailed analysis. It is also possible to conduct a comparative analysis, which is important in the diagnostic process. However, in order to produce the most reliable results, it is important to have a good quality digital image. There should be no interference or distortion here. For these purposes, special methods of pre-processing of medical images are used. This allows you to significantly improve the quality of the input image. As a specific example, we consider digital images of fatty liver lesions taken under a microscope. The paper presents real medical images and the results of their analysis after pre-processing and searching for lesions.
