Abstract: The main objective of this study is to apply three cases of brightness and contrast on medical images. As for as measuring the quality of any digital image is of crucial importance for many image processing applications, this study would take this importance into consideration. Using various medical techniques, the medical images under study are taken X-ray and fluoroscopy. The purpose behind that is to ensure the enhancement of brightness and contrast. To achieve the objective of the study, a diagnosis for the medical images in the same part of the body is done by evaluating the quality of these images. A well-known set of quality metrics are applied such as Image Fidelity (IF), Mean Squared Error (MSE), Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR), Structural Similarity Index (SSIM), Synthetic Content (SC), Average Difference (AD).
