Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of image enhancement, in particular to an endoscope image enhancement method based on histogram equalization and improved unsharp mask. Background technique
[0002] Due to the limitation of lighting conditions and the complexity of the surgical environment, the images collected by the endoscope are often not clear enough and have low contrast, which affects the doctor's diagnosis. Therefore, it is necessary to enhance the contrast of endoscopic images to provide intuitive and clear information to help doctors interpret the images more easily.
[0003] Modern image enhancement techniques can be divided into three categories, namely Retinex-based methods, Unsharp Mask (UM)-based methods, and Non-linear Intensity Transform (NIT)-based methods. Retinex-based methods usually produce halo effects, and the algorithm is relatively complex and time-consuming; UM-based detail enhancement methods deal with high-frequ...
