Abstract |
|
Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) is a subtype of acute leukemia which is a type of cancer where the blood cells and bone marrow get affected. This type of cancer is mostly observed among adults with an average age of 65 years. The present method for the detection of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) is not efficient, as this method needs manual observation of blood smear under the microscope which depends on observer’s fatigueness, which is not good for patient. This paper presents a simple method that automatically detects AML cells in the blood smear. The proposed approach mainly comprises of four stages, viz. pre-processing stage, segmentation stage, feature extraction stage and classifier stage respectively. |
