This paper describes the application of the nonseparable wavelet decomposition for the discrimination of diffuse diseases of liver. The proposed feature extraction algorithm uses the filter bank performing the quincunx transform and characterizes textures by a set of channel variances estimated at the output of each filter. Classification experiments on a set of three different tissue types show that this approach could be a reliable method for analysis of B-scan liver images.
