An experiment intended to evaluate the clinical application of contrast-limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE) to chest computer tomography (CT) images is reported. A machine especially designed to compute CLAHE in a few seconds is discussed. It is shown that CLAHE can be computed in 4 s after 5-s loading time using the specially designed parallel engine made from a few thousand dollars worth of off-the-shelf components. The processing appears to be useful for a wide range of medical images, but the limitations of observer calibration make it impossible to demonstrate such usefulness by agreement experiments.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
