Three questions:

1: what is 'sharp' function to images, or 'sharpening'?
what is 'unsharp' ? how to do them in IDL?
2: how to read 1-bit Tiff (mono) file?
3: how to do the Matlab image processing, please take a look at:
http://www.mathworks.com/demos/toolbox/image/ipss0011.html
how to removes the minor regions, skeletonize, ...

Thanks, please do NOT send me emails, just post here.

If you're working with medical images you might want to check out
my library of functions/programs available at:

ftp://bial8.ucsd.edu pub/software/idl/share

The README file lists the files with short descriptions. There should
be routines you could use. Also, we do semi-automated segmentation
of brain MRI scans, using a regression analysis which is seeded
with samples chosen by the user. If you want, email me and I can
send you more info on our technique.

I would recommend saving the segmentation results as either:

1) ROI: list of indices into array; this will allow
faster access than a list of vertices or lines would.
2) GIF images

Note that you can use POLYFILLV() with the RUN_LENGTH keyword to
return the indices of a polygon in run-length form.

Thanks a lot for your help. It's really a great help

My purpose is to do the auto segmentation of the medical images,
you must have a lot of experience. The original images are not binary,
they are all kinds of medical image formats, some are color photos (for
wound healing). I want to output the auto-segmentation results in
either ROI(lines connected by points) or binary tiff images (
encoded by run-length).

Thanks again
