Automatic Lane Extraction in Hemoglobin and Serum Protein Electrophoresis Using Image Processing

Image analysis is an image processing technique that aims to extract features orinformation from images. Image analysis in medicine has a special place because isa basis for disease diagnosis for physicians. Electrophoresis is a laboratoryseparating technique. Electrophoresis images are created during the electrophoresisprocess. Serum protein and hemoglobin electrophoresis test are the most commontest in Laboratory. Each lane represents a patient's blood sample. Lane extraction isone of the most important steps in analyzing of electrophoresis images. This paper,proposed automatic lane extraction method based on Otsu thresholding andSavitzky-Golay smoothing. The results show the proposed method has 98%accurate.
