- Description
- Cancer detection through medical image segmentation and classification is possible owing to the advancement in image processing techniques. Segmentation and classification tasks carried out to predict and classify diseases need to be dependable and precise. Specular reflections are the high-intensity and low-saturation areas that reflect the light from the probing devices that capture the picture of the organ surface. These areas sometimes mimic the features that are key identifying factors for cancers like acetowhite lesions. This review article examines the various methods proposed for removing specular reflections from medical images, especially those captured by colposcope. The fundamentals of specular reflection removal and its associated challenges are discussed. The paper reviews several state-of-the-art approaches for specular reflection removal. The comprehensive review can be a strong foundation for researchers looking to decide on appropriate techniques to employ in their respective research approaches. 2024, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
