Hi all

Apology for my ignorance as this is quite new to me.

I'm currently working on MRI images and have tried numerous times using some thresholding methods to display gray area of MRI image/s but to no avail.

Any pixel with grayscale value (0-255) of less than 5 & more than 250 will be eliminated and thus only showing pixels within 6-249.

Any helps are much appreciated.

Regards Demon

The places where those pixels were: do you need those places to be transparent?

Demons 2013-1-17

transparent or black if that matter.

You can alter the image to mask out (set to zero) those pixels with gray levels outside 5 and 250 inclusive:

darkPixels = grayImage <= 5;
lightPixels = grayImage >= 250;
pixelsToExclude = darkPixels  | lightPixels;
grayImage(pixelsToExclude) = 0;

Is that what you want to do?

Here, run this demo and see what it does. I think you'll like it. I believe it does what you asked me for. Copy, paste, change the filename and folder, then run.

clc;    % Clear the command window.
close all;  % Close all figures (except those of imtool.)
imtool close all;  % Close all imtool figures.
clear;  % Erase all existing variables.
workspace;  % Make sure the workspace panel is showing.
fontSize = 20;
format compact
% Read in a demo image.
folder = 'C:\Users\Mark\Documents\Temporary';
baseFileName = 'bodyslice.jpg';
% Get the full filename, with path prepended.
fullFileName = fullfile(folder, baseFileName);
% Check if file exists.
if ~exist(fullFileName, 'file')
  % File doesn't exist -- didn't find it there.  Check the search path for it.
  fullFileName = baseFileName; % No path this time.
  if ~exist(fullFileName, 'file')
    % Still didn't find it.  Alert user.
    errorMessage = sprintf('Error: %s does not exist in the search path folders.', fullFileName);
    uiwait(warndlg(errorMessage));
    return;
  end
end
grayImage = imread(fullFileName);
% Get the dimensions of the image.  
% numberOfColorBands should be = 1.
[rows columns numberOfColorBands] = size(grayImage)
if numberOfColorBands > 1
  % Convert to grayscale.
  grayImage = rgb2gray(grayImage);
end
% Display the original gray scale image.
subplot(2, 3, 1);
imshow(grayImage, []);
title('Original Grayscale Image', 'FontSize', fontSize);
% Enlarge figure to full screen.
set(gcf, 'units','normalized','outerposition',[0 0 1 1]);
% Give a name to the title bar.
set(gcf,'name','Demo by ImageAnalyst','numbertitle','off') 
% Let's compute and display the histogram.
[pixelCount grayLevels] = imhist(grayImage);
% Suppress the lowest bin
pixelCount(1) = 0;
subplot(2, 3, 2); 
bar(pixelCount);
grid on;
title('Histogram of original image', 'FontSize', fontSize);
xlim([0 grayLevels(end)]); % Scale x axis manually.
% Threshold the image.
binaryImage = grayImage >= 200;
% Display the image.
subplot(2, 3, 3);
imshow(binaryImage, []);
title('Binary Image', 'FontSize', fontSize);
% Get their areas
labeledImage = bwlabel(binaryImage);
blobMeasurements = regionprops(binaryImage, 'Area');
% Now I'll demonstrate how to select certain blobs based using the ismember function.
% Let's say that we wanted to find only thh largest blob.
allBlobAreas = [blobMeasurements.Area];
% Get a list of the blobs that meet our criteria and we need to keep.
[areaOfLargestBlob, labelOfLargestBlob] = max(allBlobAreas)
% Extract only those blobs that meet our criteria, and
% eliminate those blobs that don't meet our criteria.
% Note how we use ismember() to do this.
keeperBlobsImage = ismember(labeledImage, labelOfLargestBlob);
% Display the image.
subplot(2, 3, 4);
imshow(keeperBlobsImage, []);
title('Largest Blob in Binary Image', 'FontSize', fontSize);
% Let's fill interior holes.
binaryImage = imfill(keeperBlobsImage, 'holes');
% Display the image.
subplot(2, 3, 5);
imshow(binaryImage, []);
title('Binary Image, filled and dilated', 'FontSize', fontSize);
% Get rid of everything outside the largest blob
% by taking the inverse of the convex hull
convexHull = bwconvhull(binaryImage);
% We'll hang on to this.  We will use it later on the gray scale image.
% Let's enlarge it a little.
binaryImage = imdilate(binaryImage, true(31));
% Display the image.
subplot(2, 3, 5);
imshow(binaryImage, []);
title('Binary Image, filled and dilated', 'FontSize', fontSize);
% Combine convex hull and largest blob to get the pixels to erase.
pixelsToErase = ~convexHull | binaryImage;
% Display the image.
subplot(2, 3, 6);
imshow(pixelsToErase, []);
title('Pixels to Erase', 'FontSize', fontSize);
promptMessage = sprintf('Now we will erase these pixels in the lower right from the original image.');
titleBarCaption = 'Continue?';
button = questdlg(promptMessage, titleBarCaption, 'OK', 'Cancel', 'OK');
if strcmpi(button, 'Cancel')
  return;
end
% Use this binary image to mask out the original image.
grayImage(pixelsToErase) = 0;
% Display the image.
subplot(2, 3, 6);
imshow(grayImage, []);
title('Gray Image, no Adipose', 'FontSize', fontSize);
uiwait(helpdlg('Done with demo! Thanks Image Analyst!'));

One word man - WOW!

This will save at least a good few weeks of my life. Really appreciate your effort.

If you happen to drop in Manchester someday, let me know.

You're welcome. The closest I get is Newcastle. But good luck with your project.

For most tasks of analysing pixel values and thresholding, I've found http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/6770 very useful.

You could use:

[levelLow bwLow] = thresh_tool(IM); 
[levelHi bwHi] = thresh_tool(IM);
%to get the mask for each of the lower and upper level in bw.

depending on the datatype of your image, you can then just do an and operation between your image and the bw images.

Hi buddy

Thanks for your response. Appreciate that.

But gosh that was huge! Have you any idea of a much simpler one?
