Classification of Magnetic Resonance Image and Segmentation of Brain Tissues for Tumor Detection
Advancing techniques in image processing has led to many inventions and provides valuable support especially in medical fields to identify and analyze the diseases. MRI images are chosen for detection of brain tumor as they are used in soft tissue determinations. Brain tumor is one of the severe diseases in the field of medicine. Early identification of disease increases the chances for successful treatment. Classification and Segmentation plays a vital role in identifying the disease. First, image Pre-processing is used to enhance the image quality. Subsequently, Decomposition is performed using Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Transform to analysis texture of an image and features are extracted using Gray-Level Co-Occurrence Matrix. Then, Neuro-Fuzzy and Neural Network can be used to categorize the types of Brain Tumor such as normal, benign and malignant. Finally, tumor region is detected using Kernel weighted clustering method by segmenting the brain tissues and also to find the size of the tumor.
