Background: Variations of image segmentation techniques, particularly those used for Brain MRI segmentation, vary in complexity from basic standard Fuzzy C-means (FCM) to more complex and enhanced FCM techniques. Objective: In this paper, a comprehensive review is presented on all thirteen variations of FCM segmentation techniques. In the review process, the concentration is on the use of FCM segmentation techniques for brain tumors. Brain tumor segmentation is a vital step in the process of automatically diagnosing brain tumors. Unlike segmentation of other types of images, brain tumor segmentation is a very challenging task due to the variations in brain anatomy. The low contrast of brain images further complicates this process. Early diagnosis of brain tumors is indeed beneficial to patients, doctors, and medical providers. Results: FCM segmentation works on images obtained from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners, requiring minor modifications to hospital operations to early diagnose tumors as most, if not all, hospitals rely on MRI machines for brain imaging. In this paper, we critically review and summarize FCM based techniques for brain MRI segmentation.

Abstract Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a widely used imaging modality to evaluate brain disorders. MRI generates huge volumes of data, which consist of a sequence of scans taken at different instances of time. As the presence of brain disorders has to be evaluated on all magnetic resonance (MR) sequences, manual brain disorder detection becomes a tedious process and is prone to inter- and intra-rater errors. A technique for detecting abnormalities in brain MRI using template matching is proposed. Bias filed correction is performed on volumetric scans using N4ITK filter, followed by volumetric registration. Normalized cross-correlation template matching is used for image registration taking into account, the rotation and scaling operations. A template of abnormality is selected which is then matched in the volumetric scans, if found, the corresponding image is retrieved. Post-processing of the retrieved images is performed by the thresholding operation; the coordinates and area of the abnormality are reported. The experiments are carried out on the glioma dataset obtained from Brain Tumor Segmentation Challenge 2013 database (BRATS 2013). Glioma dataset consisted of MR scans of 30 real glioma patients and 50 simulated glioma patients. NVIDIA Compute Unified Device Architecture framework is employed in this paper, and it is found that the detection speed using graphics processing unit is almost four times faster than using only central processing unit. The average Dice and Jaccard coefficients for a wide range of trials are found to be 0.91 and 0.83, respectively.

The Impact

Abstract Since magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has superior soft tissue contrast, contouring (brain) tumor accurately by MRI images is essential in medical image processing. Segmenting tumor accurately is immensely challenging, since tumor and normal tissues are often inextricably intertwined in the brain. It is also extremely time consuming manually. Late deep learning techniques start to show reasonable success in brain tumor segmentation automatically. The purpose of this study is to develop a new region-ofinterest-aided (ROI-aided) deep learning technique for automatic brain tumor MRI segmentation. The method consists of two major steps. Step one is to use a 2D network with U-Net architecture to localize the tumor ROI, which is to reduce the impact of normal tissue’s disturbance. Then a 3D U-Net is performed in step 2 for tumor segmentation within identified ROI. The proposed method is validated on MICCAI BraTS 2015 Challenge with 220 high Gliomas grade (HGG) and 54 low Gliomas grade (LGG) patients’ data. The Dice similarity coefficient and the Hausdorff distance between the manual tumor contour and that segmented by the proposed method are 0.876 ±0.068 and 3.594±1.347 mm, respectively. These numbers are indications that our proposed method is an effective ROI-aided deep learning strategy for brain MRI tumor segmentation, and a valid and useful tool in medical image processing.

Brain tumor segmentation is a challenging task in the medical diagnosis. The primary aim of brain tumor segmentation is to produce precise characterizations of brain tumor areas using adequately placed masks. Deep learning techniques have shown great promise in recent years for solving various computer vision problems such as object detection, image classification, and semantic segmentation. Numerous deep learning-based approaches have been implemented to achieve excellent system performance in brain tumor segmentation. This article aims to comprehensively study the recently developed brain tumor segmentation technology based on deep learning in light of the most advanced technology and its performance. A genetic algorithm based on fuzzy C-means (FCM-GA) was used in this study to segment tumor regions from brain images. The input image is scaled to 256×256 during the preprocessing stage. FCM-GA segmented a preprocessed MRI image. This is a versatile advanced machine learning (ML) technique for locating objects in large datasets. The segmented image is then subjected to hybrid feature extraction (HFE) to improve the feature subset. To obtain the best feature value, Kernel Nearest Neighbor with a genetic algorithm (KNN-GA) is used in the feature selection process. The best feature value is fed into the RESNET classifier, which divides the MRI image into meningioma, glioma, and pituitary gland regions. Real-time data sets are used to validate the performance of the proposed hybrid method. The proposed method improves average classification accuracy by 7.99 % to existing Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) classification algorithms

Segmentation Methods

Among the currently proposed brain segmentation methods, brain tumor segmentation methods based on traditional image processing and machine learning are not ideal enough. Therefore, deep learning-based brain segmentation methods are widely used. In the brain tumor segmentation method based on deep learning, the convolutional network model has a good brain segmentation effect. The deep convolutional network model has the problems of a large number of parameters and large loss of information in the encoding and decoding process. This paper proposes a deep convolutional neural network fusion support vector machine algorithm (DCNN-F-SVM). The proposed brain tumor segmentation model is mainly divided into three stages. In the first stage, a deep convolutional neural network is trained to learn the mapping from image space to tumor marker space. In the second stage, the predicted labels obtained from the deep convolutional neural network training are input into the integrated support vector machine classifier together with the test images. In the third stage, a deep convolutional neural network and an integrated support vector machine are connected in series to train a deep classifier. Run each model on the BraTS dataset and the self-made dataset to segment brain tumors. The segmentation results show that the performance of the proposed model is significantly better than the deep convolutional neural network and the integrated SVM classifier.

Segmentation of an image is the partition or separation of the image into disjoint regions of related features. In clinical practice, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is used to differentiate pathologic tissues from normal tissues, especially for brain tumors. The main objective of this paper is to develop a system that can follow a medical technician way of work, considering his experience and knowledge. In this paper, a step by step methodology for the automatic MRI brain tumor segmentation and classification is presented. Initially acquired MRI brain images are preprocessed by the Gaussian filter. After preprocessing, initial segmentation is done by hierarchical topology preserving map (HTPM). From the resultant images, the features are extracted using gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) method, and the same are given as inputs to adaptive neuro fuzzy inference systems (ANFIS) for final segmentation and the classification of brain images into normal or abnormal. In case of abnormal, the MRI brain images are classified as benign subject (tumor without cancerous tissues) or malignant subject (tumor with cancerous tissues). Based on the analysis, it has been discovered that the overall accuracy of classification of our method is above 94%, and F1-score is about 1. The simulation results also show that the proposed approach is a valuable diagnosing technique for the physicians and radiologists to detect the brain tumors.
