Abstract

Medical images stored in distributed and centralized servers are referred to for knowledge, teaching, information, and diagnosis. Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) is used to locate images in vast databases. Images are indexed and retrieved with a set of features. The CBIR model on receipt of query extracts same set of features of query, matches with indexed features index, and retrieves similar images from database. Thus, the system performance mainly depends on the features adopted for indexing. Features selected must require lesser storage, retrieval time, cost of retrieval model, and must support different classifier algorithms. Feature set adopted should support to improve the performance of the system. The chapter briefs on the strength of local binary patterns (LBP) and its variants for indexing medical images. Efficacy of the LBP is verified using medical images from OASIS. The results presented in the chapter are obtained by direct method without the aid of any classification techniques like SVM, neural networks, etc. The results prove good prospects of LBP and its variants.
