Image Fusion is the process of generating better quality image from two or more input images.The resultant image should retain all important features of all input images. Various techniques are availablefor image fusion. Contourlet transform provides directionality and anisotropy which can useful in generationbetter quality fused image. This paper includes medical image fusion using contourlet transform. Regionconsistency check fusion rule is used to get fused image coefficient. New method of image fusion based oncontourlet with image blocking is also presented. Various Qualitative parameters to measure effectiveness offusion process are also presented. Comparison is presented in graphical as well as tabular form. Comparativestudy shows that by combining image fusion with image blocking better quality image can be obtained.
