Tissue Classification from Retina Eye Images

ABSTRACT

Tissue Classification from Retina Eye Images is a eye disease which

occurs when Blood vessels and Exudates in the retina become swelled and leaks
fluids which ultimately leads to vision loss. Several image processing techniques
has been developed for the early detection of eye disease which gives the clearer
images to doctors.

The main aim of our project is to develop an interface for the extraction of
Blood vessels and Exudates in retinal images. It shows presence of retinal
disease and helps to prevent the vision loss in its early stage.
 EXISTING SYSTEM

There are many algorithms existed for tissue classification from retina
eye images. For example, Diabetic Retinopathy detection using retina eye
images is based on Image processing, feature extraction, supervised learning
algorithms and Neural networks. But such models are fail to get clearer
features and also efficient results quickly.
 DRAWBACKS IN THE EXISTED SYSTEM

1. It won’t give cleared or contrast of blurred images

2. It can’t remove noisy data completely from images.
3. Due to high complexity it will take more time to give result.
 PROPOSED SYSTEM

Doctor unable to detect the disease by observing retina eye images in its early
stages. So we proposed the technique “Tissue Classification from Retina Eye images”
which is used to detect the disease in eye by the extraction of Blood vessels and
Exudates.

We build an interface using Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization

(CLAHE)algorithm, morphological operations(Dilation) and some filters(median,
kirch). By using this interface, we can easily extract exudates and blood vessels to
identify retina eye disease.

 Cont….

Tissues: Tissues are groups of cells that have a similar structure and act
together to perform a specific function.

Blood Vessels: The blood vessels are part of the circulatory system and
function to transport blood throughout the body.

Exudate: A fluid rich in protein and cellular elements that oozes out of blood
vessels due to inflammation and is deposited in nearby tissues.
 SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS

• Technology : Python

• Operating system: Windows, Linux, Mac

• Software version : Python 2.7.15

 HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS

• I3 processor

• RAM: 2GB

• Hard Disk: 20GB

 ADVANTAGES

1. We can extract clear images, so that doctors can easily recognize the disease.
2. It gives the result very quickly compared to existing system.
3. We can detect the edges using morphological operations.
4. It smoothes the images with less blurring using median filter.
 CONCLUSION

We are designed an interface that will be able to helpful for doctors to

detect the disease in it’s early stage. By using this, we can save so many
people from vision loss. And also it will be able to identify patients disease
either color image or grey color image. This is also helpful in extracting
minute blood vessels.
