Abstract: Diabetic Retinopathy is a disease which affects the eyes and may cause vision loss. It can be detected by analyzing the vessels of a retinal vessel. In this paper, we present a blood vessel enhancement and segmentation approach, which is used for analysis of blood vessels. Contrast correction and mathematical morphological operations are used to enhance the blood vessels and then segmentation is performed. The proposed approach is tested on DRIVE dataset and it achieves an average accuracy of 95.40%.
