Cervical image visualization and improvement for clinical support in diagnosis and treatment.

ABSTRACT: Cervical white light imaging (CWLI) plays a key role in diagnosing and managing cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) but is limited by uneven illumination, low contrast, and specular reflections. Cervical image visualization and improvement (CIVI) is designed to improve contrast and uniform brightness while maintaining the histological accuracy of colposcopic images to clearly identify tissue differences. CIVI combines multiple image enhancement techniques, including specular reflection removal, illumination correction, and local contrast enhancement, in a unified framework. This technique was validated on 52 histologically confirmed CWLI images (CIN 1-3). We performed a Local Binary Pattern (LBP) analysis to extract cervical epithelial texture features and quantified blood contrast us
