ReconByDil

Reconstruction by dilation.

 

function call:

[out_img1,out_img2]=vsg('ReconByDil',in_img1,in_img2,connected);

 

Arguments:

in_img1 mask image, 3 channel RGB, 1 channel greyscale or binary image, or DICOM image.

in_img2 seed image, 3 channel RGB, 1 channel greyscale or binary image, or DICOM image.

connected – an integer specifying whether 4 or 8 connected morphological operations should be carried out.

 

Description:

out_img1 – An image which has dimensions the same as the input image. This is the reconstructed image.

out_img2 – An image which has dimensions the same as the input image. This is the remainder of the input mask image less the reconstructed regions.

 

Example:

img1=openimage('bio_sample.gif');

img1 = vsg('Inverse',img1);

h=figure;image(uint8(img1));set(h,'Name','Input Image');

img2 = img1;

img2(2:size(img1,1)-1,2:size(img1,2)-1,:)=0;

h=figure;image(uint8(img2));set(h,'Name','Second Input');

[out_img1,out_img2]=vsg('ReconByDil',img1,img2,connected);

h=figure;image(uint8(out_img1));set(h,'Name','Reconstruction by Dilation');

h=figure;image(uint8(out_img2));set(h,'Name','Removal of white region touching the boundary');

Notes:

1. For DICOM images, the function operates on all slices separately.

2. For RGB images, the function operates on all colour planes separately.

3. All input images should be binary with a range of {0,255} as it is white regions that are being dilated and it is a white region that should be used as the mask.
