Generation of Vessel Tree Structure from Retinal Fundus Image

Abstract

This paper presents the mathematical morphology method to detect and the blood vessels and Minutiae Points.And based on this Minutiae Points generate vessel tree. Over the last few decades, analysis of retinal vascular images has gained its popularity among the cyber scientists. Retina is unique in nature because of its most important feature, bifurcation point, crossover points, terminal points serving reliable authentication basis. Using these points many problem of authentication could be handled easily. Literature has shown that in a retinal vascular structure, bifurcation & ridge ending points need to be separated for the purpose of authentication. With this motivation in mind, we want to propose a novel method to create a hierarchical structure using the detected vascular bifurcation points and ridge ending points in any retinal image.
