X ray image structure recognition improvement process uses Fourier transform for user selected Gaussian or other weighting filter in frequency domain

摘要

An X ray image structure recognition improvement process (20) stores the image as spatial intensity distribution and uses a Fourier Transform to the frequency domain for filtering with weighting using a control slider (26, 28) selected central value and Gaussian or other profile to enhance average structure dimensions and an inverse transform to return an enhanced image (24). Includes INDEPENDENT CLAIMs for image processing equipment using the procedure.
