Abstract—Template matching method widely used in pattern recognition such face recognition as a part of cases in image processing field. However, although this method is widely used in image processing field, usually it is applied to digital images that have enough resolution. This paper will discuss about using template matching for noisy digital images produced by low-resolution ultrasonography device especially for localizing uterus region.

Index Terms—Template matching, low resolution, uterus, ultrasonography.
