An Intelligent Detection System for Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Disease using Image Processing

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that causes chronic pain, stiffness, redness or loss of function in the joints. Other than early diagnosis, there is yet a cure available for RA. Diseases with similar symptoms such as lupus, osteoarthritis, gout cause difficulty in diagnosing RA. C...
