Abstract: The rapid expansion and improvement in medical science and technology lead to the generation of more image data in its regular activity such as computed tomography (CT), X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) etc. To manage the medical images properly for clinical decision making, content-based medical image retrieval (CBMIR) system emerged. In this paper, Pulse Coupled Neural Network (PCNN) based feature descriptor is proposed for retrieval of biomedical images. Time series is used as an image feature which contains the entire information of the feature, based on which the similar biomedical images are retrieved in our work. Here, the physician can point out the disorder present in the patient report by retrieving the most similar report from related reference reports. Open Access Series of Imaging Studies (OASIS) magnetic resonance imaging dataset is used for the evaluation of the proposed approach. The experimental result of the proposed system shows that the retrieval efficiency is better than the other existing systems.
