Abstract: -The main aim is Image Enhancement of Bio-Medical MRI Images Using Morphology technique. There are basically four operations in Morphology technique: Dilation, Erosion, Opening an Image and closing an Image. Basically I am going to use Dilation and erosion operations of the Morphology Technique for Image Enhancement. Previously I used Histogram Technique for enhancing image clarity; I collected Various MRI images of a normal child and a Rheumatoid Arthritis patient, including reading and writing images, performing histogram equalization on an image, and getting information about an image
