Abstract

The infection with the COVID-19 virus or better known as the Corona virus spread throughout China and other countries around the world until it was designated a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). Detection of patients infected with COVID-19 in the form of RT-PCR, CT-Scan images and Chest X-Ray (CXR). This study aims to analyze CXR images of COVID-19 patients based on age using Otsu Thresholding Segmentation. The image segmentation process uses the Otsu auto-tresholding method to separate objects from the background on the CXR image. The results show that the images of COVID-19 patients have pneumonia spots that are not visible on the original CXR image. The average value of the accuracy of the Otsu Thresholding results is 95.18%. Penunomia spots are mostly found in COVID-19 patients aged 50 to 70 years and over which cause severe lung damage.©2021 JNSMR UIN Walisongo. All rights reserved.
