This document discusses research on using deep learning methods for brain MRI image processing and predicting the stage of brain cancer. Specifically, it involves:
1. Segmenting brain tumor images using a convolutional neural network (CNN) model to identify tumor regions and classify the cancer stage (grades I-IV).
2. Representing the segmented tumor in 3D to help doctors analyze the tumor type, size, and stage.
3. The CNN model is trained on preprocessed MRI images and evaluates test images to predict the cancer stage. It achieves more accurate predictions than conventional methods.
4. In addition to cancer stage prediction, the system segments MRI images into white matter, grey matter, cerebrospinal fluid
