ABSTRACT
Determining of blood types is very important during emergency situation before administering a blood transfusion. Presently, these tests are performed manually by technicians, which can lead to human errors. Determination of the blood types in a short period of time and without human errors is very much essential. A method is developed based on processing of images acquired during the slide test. The image processing techniques such as Pre-processing, Segmentation, Thresholding, Morphological operations and Support Vector Machine are used. The images of the slide test are obtained from the pathological laboratory are processed and the occurrence of agglutination are evaluated. Thus the developed automated method determines the blood type using image processing techniques. The developed method is useful in emergency situation to determine the blood group without human error. The slide test consists of the mixture of one drop of blood and one drop of reagent, being the result interpreted according to the occurrence or not of agglutination. The combination of the occurrence and non occurrence of the agglutination determines the blood type of the patient.
