Abstract

In this paper, a medical images retrieval method using feature extraction based on wavelet transform is proposed. We used energy of coefficients which is represented by wavelet transform. The proposed retrieval algorithm is comprised of the two retrieval. At first, we make a energy map for wavelet coefficient of a query image and then compare is to one of db image. And then we use an edge information of the query image to retrieve the images selected at the first retrieval once more. Consequently some retrieved images are displayed on screen.
