An Effective Occipitomental View Enhancement Based on Adaptive Morphological Texture Analysis.

This paper aims to present an algorithm that specifically enhances maxillary sinuses using a novel contrast enhancement technique based on the adaptive morphological texture analysis for occipitomental view radiographs. First, the skull X-ray (SXR) is decomposed into rotational blocks (RBs). Second, each RB is rotated into various directions and processed using morphological kernels to obtain the dark and bright features.
