The determination of white blood cell borders with using of logical and morphological operations in microscopic blood images

In the health sector, the blood analysis is one of the most used diagnostic method. Although high technological systems provide very important information in the diagnosis of the blood diseases, a microscopic smear analysis is required for an accurate diagnosis. In this study the microscopic images of the blood cells are analysed and the location of the white blood cells are identified in the images. After this process, the determination of the kernel borders and than cell borders of the white blood cells are investigated. During this process logical and morphological operations are applied. When considering the running time of the system, the result of the investigation are satisfactory. In future studies it's expected that it will be a basis of the complex investigations such as the determination of the cancer cells or the cellular disorders.
