  • Abstract
    Quantitative measurement of membrane characteristics in a histological section is an important step in cancer diagnostic. We present an algorithm of colour image processing of a histological sample for membrane analysis. The algorithm includes a unique color thinning operation that allows to extract a membrane pattern. Colour properties of the detected membrane allow to describe physiological processes in histological tissue for medical analysis.
