Binarization with Bradley's Adaptive Threshold on DICOM Image in Aspose.Imaging for .NET

Are you looking to apply Bradley’s Adaptive Threshold to a DICOM image using Aspose.Imaging for .NET? In this comprehensive tutorial, we will walk you through the process step by step. By the end of this guide, you’ll be able to perform binarization on DICOM images efficiently. We’ll cover everything from prerequisites to importing namespaces and breaking down each example into multiple steps.

Prerequisites

Before we dive into the tutorial, let’s ensure you have everything you need to get started.

1. Aspose.Imaging for .NET

Make sure you have Aspose.Imaging for .NET installed on your system. You can download it from the website here.

2. DICOM Image

Prepare the DICOM image that you want to binarize. You should have the file path to the DICOM image ready for processing.

Importing Namespaces

In this section, we will import the necessary namespaces to work with Aspose.Imaging for .NET. This step is essential for making all the functionalities available to your code.

using System;
using System.IO;
using Aspose.Imaging;
using Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Dicom;
using Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Bmp;

Now that we have imported the essential namespaces, let’s move on to the main process of binarization.

We will now break down the binarization process into multiple steps, ensuring that you can easily follow along and understand each part of the code.

Step 1: Load the DICOM Image

First, we need to load the DICOM image for binarization. Ensure you have the correct path to your DICOM image.

string dataDir = "Your Document Directory";
string inputFile = dataDir + "image.dcm";

using (var fileStream = new FileStream(inputFile, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
using (DicomImage image = new DicomImage(fileStream))
{
    // Your code will go here
}

Step 2: Binarize the Image

Now, it’s time to apply Bradley’s Adaptive Threshold to binarize the image.

// Binarize image with Bradley's adaptive threshold and Save the resultant image.
image.BinarizeBradley(10);

Step 3: Save the Binarized Image

Save the binarized image to your desired location using BMP format.

image.Save(dataDir + "BinarizationWithBradleysAdaptiveThreshold_out.bmp", new BmpOptions());

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we’ve covered the entire process of binarization with Bradley’s Adaptive Threshold on a DICOM image using Aspose.Imaging for .NET. You’ve learned the prerequisites, how to import namespaces, and a step-by-step guide to binarize an image. With this knowledge, you can efficiently process DICOM images for your specific needs.

Now you have the tools and knowledge to enhance your image processing capabilities with Aspose.Imaging for .NET.
