ABSTRACT Since X-ray was discovered more than 100 years ago, It has been widely used to develop various analog and digital medical imaging devices, from screen film imaging system to fashion digital radiography. Various X-ray-based medical imaging devices are widely used in modern hospitals. The main factor that influences image quality is the accuracy of radiography positions in clinical application. An algorithm is proposed, which can help doctors to judge the right radiography position, thus effectively reduce the wrong shot and protect the patient from the radiation dose from replicate shots. Meanwhile the algorithm brings improvement to the image quality and advance the efficiency of X-ray examination. In the thesis, computer vision technology is applied to intellectually recognize the six most common standard positions (hand AP, hand oblique PA, hand oblique AP, thumb AP, thumb lateral and single finger lateral) used in present clinical X-ray radiography. According to the X-ray radiography position standard released by World Health Organization, An algorithm which is used to judge the standard X-ray radiography positions is developed by independent research. It can recognize six kinds of most common hand position including hand AP, hand oblique PA, hand oblique AP, thumb AP, thumb lateral and single finger lateral. To reduce the influence of illumination variations and complex background, the hand contour extraction part of the algorithm was improved. Firstly, codebook was adopted to model the background for extracting the foreground; then the foreground and background’ s skeleton topology, of which watershed calculation took advantage to obtain the profile of the hand, were extracted by thinning algorithm. We established a platform on which t the algorithm can be tested and the experimental data of radiography positions can be collected. Finally the software of collecting Web video data was programmed. Instructed by a medical expert, we collected 100 cases o
