In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) education field, the teaching of tongue diagnostics is facing the problem of using abstract or non-quantitative notions. In this paper, a computer aided education tool for TCM, tongue diagnosis system (TDS) is described. By using TDS, the diagnosis features are processed in quantitative manner, and the diagnosis reasoning is objective. The system enables performing...
Petechia Spot ranks itself among the most significant pathological features utilized in the practice of the Tongue Diagnosis because it can reveal the existence of tiny hemorrhage in some organ inside the body. In this paper, an automated feature extraction method for recognition of Petechia Spot in tongue image is proposed employing marker-based watershed transform and morphological filter. An efficient...
Petechia Dot ranks itself among the most significant pathological features utilized in the practice of the Tongue Diagnosis because it can reveal the existence of tiny hemorrhage in some organ inside the body. In this paper, a feature extraction method aiming for recognition of the Petechia Dot in tongue image is proposed employing graylevel-height based thresholding, Top-hat high-pass filtering,...
Tongue diagnosis is a distinctive and essential diagnostic method. The color category of the tongue can be utilized to discover pathological changes on the tongues for identifying diseases. In this paper, a novel scheme is established which classify tongue images into various categories, including coating and substance categories. Firstly, we proposed a two level hierarch clustering method for quantizing...
Sublingual vein is one important diagnostic measurement in Tongue Diagnosis. Segmentation method of sublingual veins from the near infrared sublingual images is proposed in this paper. According to the characteristic of the captured near infrared sublingual images, the radial projection method based on watershed algorithm is firstly applied to acquire the entire contour of the sublingual region, and...
Characteristics of tongue pose the most important information for tongue diagnosis. So far, extensive studies have been made on extracting tongue surface features. Meanwhile, the sublingual vein diagnosis, one important part of tongue diagnosis, has received increasing attention. In this paper, a novel image acquisition device specially designed for capturing sublingual vein images is introduced....
