Background: This paper endeavors to identify an expedient approach for the detection of the brain tumor in MRI images. The detection of tumor is based on i) review of the machine learning approach for the identification of brain tumor and ii) review of a suitable approach for brain tumor detection. Discussion: This review focuses on different imaging techniques such as X-rays, PET, CT- Scan, and MRI. This survey identifies a different approach with better accuracy for tumor detection. This further includes the image processing method. In most applications, machine learning shows better performance than manual segmentation of the brain tumors from MRI images as it is a difficult and time-consuming task. For fast and better computational results, radiology used a different approach with MRI, CT-scan, X-ray, and PET. Furthermore, summarizing the literature, this paper also provides a critical evaluation of the surveyed literature which reveals new facets of research. Conclusion: The problem faced by the researchers during brain tumor detection techniques and machine learning applications for clinical settings have also been discussed.

Brain tumors have different characteristics such as shape, size, location, and image intensities. Magnetic-resonance images (MRIs) typically have a degree of noise and randomness associated with the natural random nature of brain structure. MRI is a profoundly created medical imaging strategy giving a range of data about the individual’s delicate tissue structure. Even though it gives a rich data, the complex dynamics of the tumor evolution cannot be captured perfectly because of the uncertainty in the tumor segmentations. Different methods are available to identify and segment a brain tumor. Stages of medical image processing in brain tumor detection are discussed in this paper and overview of the analogous papers is quoted by analyzing several research papers. This paper provides delving of technologies which can be used to prognosticate brain tumor.

<p class="Abstract">Even with the enormous progress in medical technology, brain tumor detection is still an extremely tedious and complex task for the physicians. The early and accurate detection of brain tumors enables effective and efficient therapy and thus can result in increased survival rates. Automatic detection and classification of brain tumors have the potential to achieve efficiency and a higher degree of predictable accuracy. However, it is well established that the accuracy performance of automatic detection and classification techniques varies from technique to technique, and tends to be image modality dependent. This paper reviews the state-of-the-art detection techniques and highlights their pros and cons.</p>

In today’s world many engineers have been concentrating in developing various tools for detection of tumor and processing its medical images. The extraction of brain tumor and analysing it is a very challenging task in the field of healthcare. Segmentation’s introduction solves the complexity to medical imaging and in turn “MRI (magnetic resonance imaging)” proves to bea very useful diagnostic tool for the detection of brain tumorin MRI’s. Here we have performed a comparative study between various clustering and segmentation algorithms. In healthcare field, detection of brain tumor from MRI of the brain, is the current most favourable and seeded area of research. Detecting tumors is one of the major focus areas of the system, it plays a critical role in extraction of details from graphic generated contents of the healthcare. MRI’s with brain scans are used in the processes. We have implemented “k-means, fuzzy-c means and watershed segmentation”with various soft computing image processing techniques in various test case scenarios which allows us to compare and contrast between the stated techniques. This paper also focuses on enhancing the performance of the algorithms by setting up a suitable parallel environment for these three tumor detection techniques. This will allow multiple MRI’s being evaluated simultaneously.

In the medical world, most challenging disease is Brain tumor. Brain tumors formed inside the brain as an abnormal cell. It is a mass of tissues which results in hormonal changes results in mortality. In the recent years, various brain tumor detection techniques are evolved. We propose, a novel brain tumor detection technique is proposed to detect tumors accurately in given brain MR image and also it classifies the given brain MR image is normal or abnormal. At first the preprocessing is performed by median filtering and segmentation by means of morphological technique. Then the Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) is applied to extract the texture features. Then, the derived features are applied to classification using three classifiers such as Naïve Bayes, Multilayer perceptron, and Decision Tree C4.5 classifiers. By conducting experiments, the proposed technique is assessed and validated for performance as well as quality analysis based on accuracy, sensitivity and specificity on brain MR images. In experimental section, the performance of all three classifiers are compared in which the decision tree C4.5 algorithm provides better performance with 75% of accuracy, 79% of sensitivity and 56% of specificity.
