Abstract:
This paper describes a fast and reliable mobile phone Android application platform for blood image analysis and malaria diagnosis from Giemsa stained thin blood film images. The application is based on novel Annular Ring Ratio Method which is already implemented, tested and validated in MATLAB. The method detects the blood components such as the Red Blood Cells (RBCs), White Blood Cells (WBCs), and identifies the parasites in the infected RBCs. The application also recognizes the different life stages of the parasites and calculates the parasitemia which is a measure of the extent of infection.
