In this paper, a series of processes are performed to assess the degree of infection in a subject’s blood infected with malaria. This process improves the existing testing method’s inefficiencies to assess the results obtained of the infected blood. Image processing algorithm was constructed to establish a standardized test procedure as a way to process the information. The algorithm is built to process the images obtained from the microscopic image of the infected blood and detect the extent of Plasmodium infection which is the cause of Malaria Disease. The images obtained from the infected red blood cells and uninfected red blood cells are processed using the image processing algorithm to distinguish the number of cells infected by malaria in the infected blood. A quantitative analysis is carried out using the results to evaluate the extent of the infection in the blood cells. To establish the relationship between the number of infected and uninfected cells, the algorithm was constructed based on color image processing through HSV color space and morphological image processing techniques. The key configuration for the proposed algorithm is the morphological image processing technique which clearly divide the red blood cells in the micrograph based on the extent of penetration of plasmodium in the blood cells using the clamp splitting method and categorize the infected blood cells.
