The 2nd International Malaysia-Ireland Joint Symposium on Engineering, Science and Business 2012 (IMiEJS2012) jointly organized by Universiti Malaysia Perlis and Athlone Institute of Technology in collaboration with The Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE) Malaysia, Education Malaysia and Malaysia Postgraduates Student Association Ireland (MyPSI), 18th - 19th June 2012 at Putra World Trade Center (PWTC), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Tuberculosis is an infectious and dangerous disease which can spread through the air when the infected person coughed, sneezed or spited. Sputum and tissue sample analysis is a common method for extra-pulmonary and pulmonary TB bacilli detection. Slide of sample stained with Ziehl-Neelsen stain is examined under light microscope with 40x digital magnification without oil immersion. Some factors can degrade the image quality such as noise, light exposure and staining problems. Thus, image enhancement is applied to produce better image in term of contrast and intensity. This paper will combined two steps of contrast enhancement technique which are local stretching and global stretching for tissue and sputum slide images. This technique has been tested onto 50 different images for each sample. The results obtained indicate that these methods may have some potential to improve the quality of slide images. 2013-10-30T14:18:58Z 2013-10-30T14:18:58Z 2012-06-18 Working Paper p. 430-435 978-967-5760-11-2 http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/29366 en Proceedings of The 2nd International Malaysia-Ireland Joint Symposium on Engineering, Science and Business 2012 (IMiEJS2012); Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP)
