ABSTRACT:
Locating the region of interest (ROI) in the histogram of a digital radiographic image is a key component for the optimized presentation of the image, either in hardcopy or softcopy display. A method for locating the ROI first locates key candidate landmarks present in a particular body part radiographic image (i.e., chest pelvis, hand, etc.). Next, a library of spatially located landmarks are matched to the candidate landmarks and used to locate the region of interest in the radiograph using geometric techniques. The histogram of the selected region of interest is used to develop the final tonescale curve used to process the image.
