In this paper, novel method based on Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Packet Transform (DT-CWPT) to analyze texture of Computer Tomography (CT) images and extract the corresponding feature vectors for content based medical image retrieval is proposed. This is mainly because of DT-CWPT characterizes textural property of CT images in better way. The feature vectors of CT images are extracted by measuring energy and standard deviation of DT-CWPT subband. These features are used to facilitate content based medical image retrieval (CBMIR).The proposed method outperforms than existing available methods.
