The brain is the most crucial part of our human body which acts as central coordinating system for all the controlling and all regular functions of our body. The continuous growth of abnormal cells which creates certain mass of tissue is called as tumor. Tumor in the brain can be either formed inside the brain or gets into brain after formed at other part. But there is no clear information regarding the formation of brain tumor till date. Though the formation tumor in brain is not common or regular but the mortality rate of the infected people is very high because the brain is major part of body. So, it is very important get the treatment at the early stages of brain tumor but there is no direct procedure for detection and classification of tumor in the very first step of diagnosis. In actual medical diagnosis, mri images alone can’t be able to determine the detected tumor as either the cancerous or non-cancerous. But the tumor may be sometimes danger to life or may not be danger to life. Tumor inside the brain can be of either the benign(non- cancerous) or the malignant(cancerous). So, we need to detect the tumor from the MRI images through image processing and then to classify the detected tumor as it belongs to either the benign or malignant tumor. We are going to get the brain mri images as our dataset for our proposed method but the images we got may have the noise. So, we need to preprocess the image using the image preprocessing techniques. We are going to use several algorithms like thresholding, clustering to make the detection of tumor by using the image processing and image segmentation and after the detection of tumor we are going do feature extraction. This step involves the extraction of detected objects features using DWT. This extracted features are given as input to classifier algorithms like SVM’s and CNN after reduction of features using the PCA.

A brain tumor is a mass of abnormal cells in the brain. Brain tumors can be benign or malignant. Conventional diagnosis of a brain tumor by the radiologist, is done by examining a set of images produced by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Many computer-aided detection (CAD) systems have been developed in order to help the radiologist reach his goal of correctly classifying the MRI image. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been widely used in the classification of medical images. This paper presents a novel CAD technique for the classification of brain tumors in MRI images The proposed system extracts features from the brain MRI images by utilizing the strong energy compactness property exhibited by the Discrete Wavelet transform (DWT). The Wavelet features are then applied to a CNN to classify the input MRI image. Experimental results indicate that the proposed approach outperforms other commonly used methods and gives an overall accuracy of 98.5%.


Automated brain tumor identification and classification is still an open problem for research in the medical image processing domain. Brain tumor is a bunch of unwanted cells that develop in the brain. This growth of a tumor takes up space within skull and affects the normal functioning of brain. Automated segmentation and detection of brain tumors are important in MRI scan analysis as it provides information about neural architecture of brain and also about abnormal tissues that are extremely necessary to identify appropriate surgical plan. Automating this process is a challenging task as tumor tissues show high diversity in appearance with different patients and also in many cases they tend to appear very similar to the normal tissues. Effective extraction of features that represent the tumor in brain image is the key for better classification. In this paper, we propose a hybrid feature extraction process. In this process, we combine the local and global features of the brain MRI using first by Discrete Wavelet Transformation and then using texture based statistical features by computing Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix. The extracted combined features are used to construct decision tree for classification of brain tumors in to benign or malignant class.

In the current era of Medical Science, Image Processing is the most evolving and inspiring technique. This technique consolidates some noise removal functions, segmentation, and morphological activities which are the fundamental ideas of image processing. Initially preprocessing of an MRI image is done to ensure the image quality for further processing/output. Our paper portrays the methodology to extricate and diagnose the brain tumor with the help of an affected person’s MRI scan pictures of the brain. MRI pictures are taken into account to recognize and extricate the tumor from the brain with the aid of MATLAB software.

Brain tumor is a life-threatening disease. Brain tumor is formed by the abnormal growth of cells inside and around the brain. Identification of the size and type of tumor is necessary for deciding the course of treatment of the patient. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is one of the methods for detection of tumor in the brain. The classification of MR Images is a difficult task due to variety and complexity of brain tumors. Various classification techniques have been identified for brain MRI tumor images. This paper reviews some of these recent classification techniques.

A Brain tumor is otherwise known as intracranial tumor. It is a formation of abnormal cells within the brain. A tumor cells grows continuously in the brain and destroys the cells in that specific region causing brain damage. The main problem in the tumor detection is that some normal brain cells tend to behave as tumor cell which leads to misclassification or unwanted brain surgery. A great challenge for the researchers is to identify the region and appropriate tumor mass. Due to this main reason, automated classifications are acquired for the early detection of brain tumor. In this research work, two standard datasets were used to test the developed classification algorithms. In this study, four different deep learning models were utilized to identify the accurate fit model to classify the brain tumor. From the results, it was observed that googlenet has achieved maximum mean classification accuracy of 98.2%, sensitivity 98.67% and specificity 96.17%. Our proposed model can be used to classify the brain tumor more accurately and effectively.

Image processing is a technique to carry out certain operations on an image so as to obtain some helpful information from it i.e., an enhanced image would be more advantageous. It is a similar to that of signal processing where input would be the image and the output obtained through this processing would be attributes/characteristics corresponding to that image. Currently, Image processing is one among the trending technologies. It is definitely one significant study area in the fields of engineering and computer science. Medical images have a vital role in the diagnosis of disorders & for checking the accurate functioning of organs. Hence, this is an active research area where several methods are being used and developed in order to make diagnosis facile. This medicinal imaging technology gave the doctors an insight for diagnosis of internal parts of the body. Also it helped doctors in performing Minimally Invasive Surgery, more commonly called as the keyhole surgeries which is done by inserting long and thin instruments into the body through small incisions to reach the internal organs instead of traditional operation techniques. The brain is the utmost important internal organ in our body and tumors effecting it could be very critical and hazardous situation. The brain tumor is a soft intracranial mass made up by irregular growth of cells of the tissue in the brain or around the brain. MRI Imaging play a vital role in brain tumors for evaluation, diagnosis and treatment arrangement.

Brain tumor is one of the leading disease in the world. So automated identification and classification of tumors are important for diagnosis. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)is widely used modality for imaging brain. Brain tumor classification refers to classify the brain MR images as normal or abnormal, benign or malignant, low grade or high grade or types. This paper reviews various techniques used for the classification of brain tumors from MR images. Brain tumor classification can be divided into three phases as preprocessing, feature extraction and classification. As segmentation is not mandatory for classification, hence resides in the first phase. The feature extraction phase also contains feature reduction. DWT is efficient for both preprocessing and feature extraction. Texture analysis based on GLCM gives better features for classification where PCA reduces the feature vector maintaining the accuracy of classification of brain MRI. Shape features are important where segmentation has already been performed. The use of SVM along with appropriate kernel techniques can help in classifying the brain tumors from MRI. High accuracy has been achieved to classify brain MRI as normal or abnormal, benign or malignant and low grade or high grade. But classifying the tumors into more particular types is more challenging.


This paper proposes a methodology in which detection, extraction and classification of brain tumour is done with the help of a patient’s MRI image. Processing of medical images is currently a huge emerging issue and it has attracted lots of research all over the globe. Several techniques have been developed so far to process the images efficiently and extract out their important features. The paper describes certain strategies including some noise removal filters, grayscaling, segmentation along with morphological operations which are needed to extract out the features from the input image and SVM classifier for classification purpose

At present, processing of medical images is a developing and important field. It includes many different types of imaging methods. Some of them are Computed Tomography scans (CT scans), X-rays and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) etc. These technologies allow us to detect even the smallest defects in the human body. Abnormal growth of tissues in the brain which affect proper brain functions is considered as a brain tumor. The main goal of medical image processing is to identify accurate and meaningful information using images with the minimum error possible. MRI is mainly used to get images of the human body and cancerous tissues because of its high resolution and better quality images compared with other imaging technologies. Brain tumor identifications through MRI images is a difficult task because of the complexity of the brain. MRI images can be processed and the brain tumor can be segmented. These tumors can be segmented using various image segmentation techniques. The process of identifying brain tumors through MRI images can be categorized into four different sections; pre-processing, image segmentation, feature extraction and image classification.

Brain is the most important and versatile organ of the human body. One of the most deadly diseases that damage the brain is the accumulation of unwanted and deadly cells near the curvature of brain known as brain tumor. There are two types of brain tumor namely malignant and benign. Malignant is a cancerous tumor and benign is a non cancerous tumor. Primarily brain tumor grows in the brain tissue. The project uses MATLAB to develop a prediction system which uses original hospital brain MRI to predict the brain tumor. Project uses digital image processing to predict the brain tumor. The use of certain image mining algorithms helps in predicting the correct spot and area of brain tumor by image segmentation. The procedure starts with uploading MRI image of human brain, forward by the pre-processing of the image.
