Detection of Eczema DISEASE by using Image Processing

Abstract

Because very bad weather in Iraq like elevated temperature, Smokes, dust, also increase depopulation to bad environment and increase the number of displaced, diseases have increased significantly including dermatological diseases and the most common types is eczema as a result of bad nutrition, bacteria, soils, bad food, and others factors. Because of all these environmental factors, physiological, chemical factors and others factors, became very necessary to detect skin diseases specially eczema and treated it to avoid aggravation the disease with the help of biomedical engineers, with less cost, and to prevent disease from spreading when at that it will be difficult and take long time to be treated.. So the aim of research is take an image to the infection area then process this image by MATLAB in many ways to obtain an image that can help the doctors in their work to recognize the eczema and the rate of infection and make it easy to improve and safe people life. Three lesioned layers  are selected in this study, face layer, hand layer and foot layer, the study showed that the foot layer  is more comfortable for detection the eczema in this approach technique.
