In this paper computer aided diagnosis is applied to the brain CT image processing. We compared performance of morphological operations in extracting three types of features, i.e. gray scale, symmetry and texture. Some classifiers were applied to classify normal and abnormal brain CT images. It showed that morphological operations can improve the result of accuracy. Moreover SVM classifier showed better result than other classifiers.展开更多
