Abstract

COVID-19 is a pandemic that has occurred in the world since 2019. Researchers have carried out various ways in dealing with this disease, starting from the screening stage to the stage of treatment and therapy for COVID-19 patients. As the gateway to the COVID-19 problem, screening has an essential role in a diagnosis that leads to appropriate treatment. In this paper, we will focus on the screening stage using digital image processing techniques, namely in calculating the area of white spots in the lungs of COVID-19 patients. The white patches are an early indication of how badly COVID-19 is attacking the patient. We use X-Ray Thorax image objects as research data in this paper. Although the current experimental results show that this method has a successful performance of 71.11%, it is pretty promising for further development due to its simplicity.

Abstract

COVID-19 is a disease that causes respiratory system disorders, so various tests are needed. One of them uses a chest X-ray or thorax. A chest X-ray will depict the lungs as a whole so that patches like white shadows will be visible. In this study, the number of lung areas and white spots can be observed and detected using segmentation techniques in image processing. But before entering the segmentation stage, the image will go through the preprocessing stage using the tri-threshold fuzzy intensification operators (fuzzy IO) method. It then segmented the lungs using the Otsu method by changing the digital image from grey to black and white based on comparing the threshold value with the pixel colour value of the digital image. Then, further segmentation was carried out using the Phansalkar method to detect and simultaneously count the number of white spots. Referring to the experiments we have carried out, Otsu Phansalkar's segmentation performance promises to be developed further.
