ABSTRACT Retinal image plays a vital role in medical image processing for the analysis of micro vascular diseases like diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma. This research work proposes a vessel segmentation algorithm that can be used in computer aided retinal image analysis. The proposed method comprises of three main stages. In the first stage, preprocessing was done that comprises of green channel component extraction, filtering by decision based median filter and enhancement by adaptive histogr.
