Abstract :
The proposal to use selected methods of image processing to expert system supporting the process of identifying the melanocytic skin lesions is presented. Fourier transform is well known tool for analyzing the different images. It lets the image analysis for the spatial frequencies occurring in the studying images. Skin lesions are analyzed on the base of their images and it seems that Fourier transformation is the right toll for such research. There are presented the Fourier transform properties in the paper, useful in such process.
