Results of the investigation of the viability of using a coherent optical processor to improve image quality prior to digitization and analysis are presented. Optical processing of small (20 mmx20 mm) and large (100 mmx100 mm) radiological images to improve contrast and enhance edges is demonstrated. A brief summary of the principle of operation of the coherent optical processor is given. Results obtained with the apparatus described here are presented and discussed.
