TB (Tuberculosis) is a contagious disease which is caused by a bacterium named Mycobacterium Tuberculosis. Screening is done to confirm the presence of TB using different screening techniques available i.e. Chest X-ray, Microscopy, Gene Xpert and Culture etc. Medical image processing is a rapidly growing field of image processing that is used to automate different medical procedures. In this research we have designed two automated systems for the screening of TB patients. A sample of 50 images for microscopy slides and chest X-ray radiographs were taken.
