Dent detection using IMAQ

can anybody suggest how to detect dent or depression on a metal surface using IMAQ Vision.The metal surface is circular with diameter of 2 inch. The surface may carry stains which is perfectly alright but dent is the problem.

The best way to bring out dents is through lighting. Have you tried dark field illumination? Our friends at Graftek may be able to offer some advice. www.graftek.com
