Brain tumors are the second leading cause of death in the world in children under 20, scientists and researchers are developing applications to react brain tumors based on magnetic resonance imaging images. In this application the method used is sobel and morphological operations. Based on research conducted on brain tumor edge detection based on magnetic resonance imaging image, sobel method can reduce the noise contained in the image mri and can localize the edge of the image of Magnetic Resonance Imaging well. This research can conclude that the sobel method is suitable for edge detection but there is still some unprocessed noise, with the results of the brain imaging of 30 test images have 60% percentage, while for the use of edge detection method of 62.11%.

Seizures are common among patients with brain tumors. Transient, postictal magnetic resonance imaging abnormalities are a long recognized phenomenon. However, these radiographic changes are not as well studied in the brain tumor population. Moreover, reversible neuroimaging abnormalities following seizure activity may be misinterpreted for tumor progression and could consequently result in unnecessary tumor-directed treatment. Here, we describe two cases of patients with brain tumors who developed peri-ictal pseudoprogression and review the relevant literature.

<p>The purpose of this article is to investigate techniques for classifying tumor grade from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This requires early diagnosis of the brain tumor and its grade. Magnetic resonance imaging may show a clear tumor in the brain, but doctors need to measure the tumor in order to treat more or to advance treatment. For this purpose, digital imaging techniques along with machine learning can help to quickly identify tumors and also treatments and types of surgery. These combined techniques in understanding medical images for researchers are an important tool to increase the accuracy of diagnosis. In this paper, classification methods for MRI images of tumors of the human brain are performed to review the astrocytoma-containing glands. Methods used to classify brain tumors, including preprocessing, screening, tissue extraction, and statistical features of the tumor using two types of T<sub>1</sub>W and Flair brain MRI images and also the method of dimensionality reduction of extracted features and how to train them in classification are also explained. Determine the tumor area using three classification of Fuzzy Logic <em>C</em><em>-</em><em>Means</em><em> </em>Clustering (FCM), Probabilistic Neural Networks (PNN) and Support Vector Machines (SVM). In this paper, simulated and real MRI images are used. The results obtained from the proposed methods in this paper are compared with the reference results and the results show that the proposed approach can increase the reliability of brain tumor diagnosis.</p>

Given the circumstances of the countries in which wars, political instability, and other uncertainties are passing that make the atmosphere impure, which have caused many diseases, one of these diseases that has spread widely is cancer. Cancer is a very common disease, and many of them affect a person and lead him or her to death. Among these diseases, which have been common in recent years specifically the brain tumors that they need early diagnosis and do not cause the death of the person. Furthermore, many studies in the field of brain cancer detection have been done, but the best solution is still missing. Therefore, in this paper, a reliable method is proposed to detect brain tumors, extract its properties, and classify the tumor using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) through the artificial neural network.  In the proposed system, an essential part of image processing is the analysis and processing of digital images, especially to improve their quality, Bilateral Filter is used to improving image clarity and any image noise in this method preserves edges. After that, the distinctive properties of the image are extracted using the Histogram of Oriented Gradient (HOG) method. Thus, the extracted features are strong and can be classified as a Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN), this is what distinguishes our work from the previous works. The advantage obtained is granted to the PNN Classifier, which is used to train and test the accuracy of performance in perceiving the location of the tumour in MRI images of the brain accuracy as it resolves 99.5%.

With the advancement in technology, machine learning can be applied to diagnose the mass/tumor in the brain using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This work proposes a novel developed transfer deep-learning model for the early diagnosis of brain tumors into their subclasses, such as pituitary, meningioma, and glioma. First, various layers of isolated convolutional-neural-network (CNN) models are built from scratch to check their performances for brain MRI images. Then, the 22-layer, binary-classification (tumor or no tumor) isolated-CNN model is re-utilized to re-adjust the neurons’ weights for classifying brain MRI images into tumor subclasses using the transfer-learning concept. As a result, the developed transfer-learned model has a high accuracy of 95.75% for the MRI images of the same MRI machine. Furthermore, the developed transfer-learned model has also been tested using the brain MRI images of another machine to validate its adaptability, general capability, and reliability for real-time application in the future. The results showed that the proposed model has a high accuracy of 96.89% for an unseen brain MRI dataset. Thus, the proposed deep-learning framework can help doctors and radiologists diagnose brain tumors early.

Background Acute dizziness may be the only symptom of stroke. Prevalence of this disease among patients with isolated dizziness differs significantly and depends on study design, inclusion criteria and diagnostic methods. In available investigations, we did not find any prospective studies where magnetic resonance imaging, positional maneuvers, and Halmagyi-Curthoys test had been used to clarify a pattern of diseases with isolated acute dizziness and suspected stroke.Aim of study To clarify the pattern of the causes of dizziness in patients with suspected acute stroke.Material and methods We examined 160 patients admitted to N.V. Sklifosovsky Research Institute for Emergency Medicine with suspected stroke and single or underlying complaint of dizziness. All patients were examined with assessment of neurological status, Dix-Hollpike and Pagnini-McClure maneuvers, HalmagyiCurthoys test, triplex scans of brachiocephalic arteries, transthoracic echocardiography, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain with magnetic field strength 1.5 T. MRI of the brain was performed in patients without evidence of stroke by CT and in patients with stroke of undetermined etiology according to the TOAST classification.Results In 16 patients (10%), the cause of dizziness was a disease of the brain: ischemic stroke (n=14 (88%)), hemorrhage (n=1 (6%)), transient ischemic attack (TIA) of posterior circulation (n=1 (6%)). In 70.6% patients (n=113), the dizziness was associated with peripheral vestibulopathy: benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (n=85 (75%)), vestibular neuritis (n=19 (17%)), Meniere’s disease (n=7 (6%)), labyrinthitis (n=2 (1,3%)). In 6.9% patients (n=11), the cause of dizziness was hypertensive encephalopathy, 1.9% of patients (n=3) had heart rhythm disturbance, 9.4% of patients (n=15) had psychogenic dizziness, 0.6% of patients (n=1) had demyelinating disease, and 0.6% of patients (n=1) had hemic hypoxia associated with iron deficiency anemia.Conclusion In 70.6% patients with acute dizziness, admitted to hospital with a suspected stroke, peripheral vestibulopathy was revealed. Only 10% of patients had a stroke as a cause of dizziness.
