Malignant Brain Tumor Detection

Abstract: Brain tumor, a mass of tissue that grows out of control is one of the major causes for the increase in mortality among children and adults. Segmenting the regions of brain is the major challenge in tumor detection. A large number of effective segmentation algorithms have been used for segmentation in grey scale images ranging from simple edge-based methods to composite high-level approaches using modern and advanced pattern recognition approaches. Gradient vector field is an effective methodology applied to ex… Show more

“…The National Brain Tumor Foundation (NBTF) for research in the United States estimated the death of 13000 patients while 29000 underwent primary brain tumor diagnosis every year [1]. Depending on the origin and growth, brain tumor is classified into two types: The primary brain tumor develops at the original site of the tumor, and the secondary brain tumor is the cancer that spreads to the other parts of the body.…”

“…Brain tumor is a growing abnormal cell in the brain or central spin canal. In USA ( [1]), National Brain Tumor Society estimates that every year 13.000 patients die, and 29.000 patients suffer from primary brain tumors (i.e. primary tumor is a tumor starts in the brain).…”
