Abstract
Chromosome images were acquired by microscopic imaging of metaphase or prophase cells on specimen slides. Digitized chromosome images usually suffer from poor image quality, particularly lack of contrast and presence of shading and artifacts. So these images must be enhanced. This paper is focused on enhancement methods for chromosome images. Some enhancement algorithms are investigated. The principle and the realization of these algorithms are analyzed.
