Abstract

The discipline of artificial intelligence (AI), which trains computers to comprehend and analyse pictures using computer vision, is flourishing, particularly in the medical industry. The well-known non-invasive diagnostic procedure known as CCTA (Coronary Computerized Tomography Angiography) is used to diagnose cardiovascular disease (CD). Pre-processing CT Angiography pictures is a crucial step in computer vision-based medical diagnosis. Implementing image enhancement preprocess to reduce noise or blur pixels and weak edges in a picture marks the beginning of the research stages. Using Python and PyCharm(IDE) editor, we can build Edge detection routines, smoothing/filtering functions, and edge sharpening functions as a first step in the pre-processing of CCTA pictures.
