Detection of selected face areas on thermograms with elimination of typical problems

Marzec M., Koprowski R., Wróbel Z.

Journal of Medical Informatics & Technologies

2010

Vol. 16

151--159

The paper presents an algorithm enabling a fully automatic detection of characteristic areas on thermograms containing patients' faces in a front projection. A resolution of problems occurring at the segmentation of face images, such as a change of position, orientation and scale, has been proposed. In addition, attempts to eliminate the effect of the background and of disturbances caused by the haircut and the hairline were made. The algorithm may be used to detect selected points and areas of a face or as a preliminary component in the face recognition, as a development of optical analysis methods or in the quantitative analysis of face on thermograms.

W artykule zaprezentowano algorytm umożliwiający w pełni automatyczną detekcję charakterystycznych obszarów na termogramach zawierających twarze pacjentów w projekcji przedniej. Algorytm prawidłowo wykrywa wymagane obszary niezależnie od położenia głowy w obrazie oraz od jej obrotu. Po prawidłowej detekcji jest przeprowadzany automatyczny pomiar wartości średniej, minimalnej i maksymalnej ich temperatury. W końcowej części artykułu zaprezentowano przykładowe zastosowanie metody do wstępnej detekcji typu i przebiegu bólu głowy.

The algorithm enabling fully automatic detection of characteristic areas of the face on thermograms captured in the anterior projection is presented in the paper. Development and application of medical thermography is also discussed. There are given different types of headaches and methods for their analysis. Regions of: forehead (defined as CL,CP), eye-sockets (defined as OL,OP) and maxillary sinuses (defined as NL,NP) are assumed to be the areas medically essential for headache diagnosis. Thermograms were obtained from thermovision cameras AGEMA 590 and ThermaCam S65. The algorithm detects correctly the required head areas independently of the head position in the picture and its rotation within the range -50 to +50 degrees. Methods of mathematical morphology, active contour, template and Hough transform were used for the analysis. After the correct detection there was taken the automatic measurement of the area of the regions as well as their mean, minimum and maximal temperature. At the end of the paper there is presented an exemplary application of the algorithm for preliminary diagnosis of the type and the course of a headache. The results of segmentation of the face areas are given. The algorithm also makes it possible to analyse the given set of thermograms without necessity of modifying the operation parameters. The set of analysed images after adding translation and rotation includes above 4000 thermograms. The algorithm was developed and tested in Matlab environment.
