Abstract

The aim of this paper is introducing of method to analyze defects in area substantia nigra in mescephalon to potential Parkinson's disease diagnosis. We developed an application in MATLAB to classification. This method is based on thresholding and calculating an area of defects in elliptical ROI in appropriate area to compare descending tendency of area of defects and statistical analysis such as variance and standard deviation analysis to reproducibility of designed method. We work with set of ultrasound images in DICOM format or converted JPEG images. Results has been tested and verified with 600 samples.
