Automatic Diagnosis of Abnormal Tumor Region from Brain Computed Tomography I...ijcseit
The research work presented in this paper is to achieve the tissue classification and automatically
diagnosis the abnormal tumor region present in Computed Tomography (CT) images using the wavelet
based statistical texture analysis method. Comparative studies of texture analysis method are performed
for the proposed wavelet based texture analysis method and Spatial Gray Level Dependence Method
(SGLDM). Our proposed system consists of four phases i) Discrete Wavelet Decomposition (ii)
Feature extraction (iii) Feature selection (iv) Analysis of extracted texture features by classifier. A
wavelet based statistical texture feature set is derived from normal and tumor regions. Genetic Algorithm
(GA) is used to select the optimal texture features from the set of extracted texture features. We construct
the Support Vector Machine (SVM) based classifier and evaluate the performance of classifier by
comparing the classification results of the SVM based classifier with the Back Propagation Neural network
classifier(BPN). The results of Support Vector Machine (SVM), BPN classifiers for the texture analysis
methods are evaluated using Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analysis. Experimental results
show that the classification accuracy of SVM is 96% for 10 fold cross validation method. The system
has been tested with a number of real Computed Tomography brain images and has achieved satisfactory
results.

Given an MRI scan, first segment the tumor region in the
MRI brain image and study the pixel intensity values. A
detailed procedure using Matlab script is written to extract

Brain Image in terms of its pixel intensity. Types of FFT like
Zero padded FFT, Windowed FFT are used to study the signal

spectral leakage for Zero Padded Windowed FFT than other
Types of FFT and hence the tumor cell identification is easier

DETECTING BRAIN TUMOUR FROM MRI IMAGE USING MATLAB GUI PROGRAMMEIJCSES Journal
Engineers have been actively developing tools to detect tumors and to process medical images. Medical image segmentation is a powerful tool that is often used to detect tumors. Many scientists and researchers are working to develop and add more features to this tool. This project is about detecting Brain tumors from MRI images using an interface of GUI in Matlab. Using the GUI, this program can use various combinations of segmentation, filters, and other image processing algorithms to achieve the best results.
We start with filtering the image using Prewitt horizontal edge-emphasizing filter. The next step for detecting tumor is "watershed pixels." The most important part of this project is that all the Matlab programs work with GUI “Matlab guide”. This allows us to use various combinations of filters, and other
image processing techniques to arrive at the best result that can help us detect brain tumors in their early stages.

Fully Automatic Method for 3D T1-Weighted Brain Magnetic Resonance Images Seg...CSCJournals
In the domain of medical imaging, accurate segmentation of brain MR images is of interest for many brain disorders. However, due to several factors such noise, imaging artefacts, intrinsic tissue variation and partial volume effects, tissue segmentation remains a challenging task. So, in this paper, a full automatic method for segmentation of brain MR images is presented. The method consists of four steps segmentation procedure. First, noise removing by median filtering is done; second segmentation of brain/non-brain tissue is performed by using a Threshold Morphologic Brain Extraction method (TMBE). Then initial centroids estimation by gray level histogram analysis based is executed. Finally, Fuzzy C-means Algorithm is used for MRI tissue segmentation. The efficiency of the proposed method is demonstrated by extensive segmentation experiments using simulated and real MR images.
Brain tumor detection and localization in magnetic resonance imagingijitcs
A tumor also known as neoplasm is a growth in the abnormal tissue which can be differentiated from the
surrounding tissue by its structure. A tumor may lead to cancer, which is a major leading cause of death and
responsible for around 13% of all deaths world-wide. Cancer incidence rate is growing at an alarming rate
in the world. Great knowledge and experience on radiology are required for accurate tumor detection in
medical imaging. Automation of tumor detection is required because there might be a shortage of skilled
radiologists at a time of great need. We propose an automatic brain tumor detectionand localization
framework that can detect and localize brain tumor in magnetic resonance imaging. The proposed brain
tumor detection and localization framework comprises five steps: image acquisition, pre-processing, edge
detection, modified histogram clustering and morphological operations. After morphological operations,
tumors appear as pure white color on pure black backgrounds. We used 50 neuroimages to optimize our
system and 100 out-of-sample neuroimages to test our system. The proposed tumor detection and localization
system was found to be able to accurately detect and localize brain tumor in magnetic resonance imaging.
The preliminary results demonstrate how a simple machine learning classifier with a set of simple
image-based features can result in high classification accuracy. The preliminary results also demonstrate the
efficacy and efficiency of our five-step brain tumor detection and localization approach and motivate us to
extend this framework to detect and localize a variety of other types of tumors in other types of medical
imagery.

MRI Image Segmentation Using Gradient Based Watershed Transform In Level Set ...IJERA Editor
Brain image classification is one of the utmost imperative parts of clinical investigative tools. Brain images
typically comprise noise, inhomogeneity and sometimes deviation. Therefore, precise segmentation of brain
images is a very challenging task. Nevertheless, the process of perfect segmentation of these images is very
important and crucial for a spot-on diagnosis by clinical tools. Also, intensity inhomogeneity often arises in realworld
images, which presents a substantial challenge in image segmentation. The most extensively used image
segmentation algorithms are region-based and usually rely on the homogeneousness of the image intensities in
the sections of interest, which often fail to afford precise segmentation results due to the intensity
inhomogeneity. This Research presents a more accurate segmentation using Gradient Based watershed
transform in level set method for a medical diagnosis system. Experimental results proved that our method
validating a much better rate of segmentation accuracy as compare to the traditional approaches, results are also
validated in terms of certain Measure properties of image regions like eccentricity, perimeter etc.

MALIGNANT AND BENIGN BRAIN TUMOR SEGMENTATION AND CLASSIFICATION USING SVM WI...sipij
In this article a method is proposed for segmentation and classification of benign and malignant tumor slices in brain Computed Tomography (CT) images. In this study image noises are removed using median and wiener filter and brain tumors are segmented using Support Vector Machine (SVM). Then a two-level discrete wavelet decomposition of tumor image is performed and the approximation at the second level is obtained to replace the original image to be used for texture analysis. Here, 17 features are extracted that 6 of them are selected using Student’s t-test. Dominant gray level run length and gray level co-occurrence texture features are used for SVM training. Malignant and benign tumors are classified using SVM with kernel width and Weighted kernel width (WSVM) and k-Nearest Neighbors (k-NN) classifier. Classification accuracy of classifiers are evaluated using 10 fold cross validation method. The segmentation results are
also compared with the experienced radiologist ground truth. The experimental results show that the proposed WSVM classifier is able to achieve high classification accuracy effectiveness as measured by sensitivity and specificity.
Today, computer aided system is widely used in various fields. Among them, the brain tumor detection is an important task in medical image processing. Early diagnosis of brain tumors plays an important role in improving treatment possibilities and increases the survival rate of the patients. Manual segmentation of brain tumors for cancer diagnosis, from large amount of Magnetic Resonance Imaging MRI images generated in clinical routine, is a difficult and time consuming task or even generates errors. So, the automatic brain tumor segmentation is needed to segment tumor. The purpose of the thesis is to detect the brain tumor quickly and accurately from the MRI brain image. In the system, the average filter is used to remove noise and make smooth an input MRI image and threshold segmentation is applied to segment tumor region from MRI brain images. Region properties method is used to detect the tumor region exactly. And then, the equation of the tumor region in the system is effectively applied in any shape of the tumor region.

of image processing techniques. It includes several types of segmentation techniques which separates the tumour
from MRI. Here, an integrated method of brain tumour detection which combines modified texture based region
growing and edge detection is proposed. Simulation is done in MATLAB. Results show that the proposed
method is better and more accurate when compared to the individual modified texture based region growing and
edge detection. The proposed method will help to detect the tumour more efficiently.

1. INTRODUCTION
Brain tumour is a deadly disease and it can be either
benign or malignant. Different types of imaging
techniques like Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI),
Computed Tomography (CT) etc. are there for the
proper detection of brain tumour. From these imaging
techniques, detection of brain tumour can be done
efficiently by automatic detection. Automatic brain
tumour detection can be performed by using image
processing techniques. The most useful image
processing technique is segmentation. Different
techniques have been proposed in the area of tumour
detection using image processing. M. Usman Akram
and Anam Usman proposed global thresholding for
the brain tumour detection. Here morphological
operation is also applied after segmentation [1].
Manoj K Kowar and Sourabh Yadav proposed a novel
brain tumour detection technique which is based on
histogram thresholding. Here the threshold point of
the histograms of the two brain halves is determined
and based on that point the presence and the physical
dimension of the tumour is determined [2]. P.
Kanungo, P. K. Nanda and U. C. Samal discussed
about another segmentation technique which uses
genetic algorithm for the selection of threshold from
the histogram of MR brain images [3]. A review of
fully automated brain tumour detection techniques
from MRI images and CT images is made. Here
methods based on artificial neural network, wavelets
etc. are discussed [4]. Comparisons of different
segmentation techniques which can be used for brain
tumour detection are also done by P. K. Srimani and
Shanthi Mahesh. Here detection methods using global
thresholding, histogram clustering, watershed
segmentation and edge based segmentation were
discussed [5]. Rajesh C. Patil and Dr. A. S.
Bhalchandra proposed another brain tumour detection
technique which uses threshold segmentation and
watershed segmentation [6]. Seeded region growing
method is also implemented for the tumour detection
based on texture analysis. Texture analysis will help
to know the presence of tumour and segmented only if
the presence of tumour is detected [7]. Robert D.
Ambrosini, Peng Wang and Walter G. O’Dell
demonstrated a three-dimensional (3D) template
matching-based algorithm for detecting brain
metastases from the MR brain images [8].
In the brain tumour detection which we propose,
an integration of two types of segmentation is used.
They are modified texture based region growing
technique and classical sobel edge detection
technique. First the MRI image is segmented using
modified texture based region growing which includes
two constrains; one is the intensity constrain and other
is the texture constrain [9]. The second integrated
segmentation technique is sobel based edge detection.
We have proved that the combined segmentation
provide better results.
Organization of the paper is as follows: The
proposed technique is introduced in Section 2. The
experimental results and conclusion are given in
section 3 and section 4 respectively.
2. METHODOLOGY
The method we propose for the brain tumour
detection incorporates two segmentation techniques.
The steps in the implementation of the proposed
method are shown in Fig.1.
2.1. Image acquisition
First, MR brain images of various patients are
collected from publicly available sources. They are
further processed for detecting the tumour accurately.

Fig.1. Flow chart of the proposed technique [9]
2.2. Pre-processing
Before segmentation, some pre-processing techniques
are applied to the MR brain images to remove the
noise present in the image [9]. The noise is removed
by high pass filtering and median filtering.
2.3. Modified texture based region growing
segmentation
Segmentation of MRI images can be done using
region growing segmentation. The normal region
growing method is a pixel based image segmentation
method. In normal region growing, only the intensity
constrain is taken into account i.e. initially a seed
point and a particular threshold level of intensity is
selected. If the difference between the intensity value
of the seed point and the neighbouring pixel is below
the selected threshold level, then those pixels are
selected for region growing. In our proposed method,
region growing technique based on two constrains is
used for segmentation. The two disadvantages of
normal region growing are over segmentation results
and difficulty in distinguishing the shading of the real
image. Since tumours have irregular shapes and
inhomogeneous structure, intensity or shape based
segmentation will be not much efficient. But they can
be segmented more accurately by their textural
properties. It increases the sensitivity of tumour
detection since intensity variation of the tumour
doesn’t affect the efficiency of tumour detection. So
the first level of segmentation stage is implemented
using modified texture based region growing. Here,
first texture filtering is done on the pre-processed
image. Based on it, a texture constrain is set in
addition to the intensity constrain present in normal
region growing. After setting the two constrains,
region growing segmentation is done [9].
2.4. Edge detection
After applying region growing segmentation, a
classical edge detection method is applied. The edge
detection used here is sobel based edge detection.
After applying sobel based edge detection, the
tumour part is extracted from the MR brain images.
Since the integration of two types of segmentation
techniques is used here, it provides better results
compared to the individual existing techniques. Also
texture based region growing provides more accurate
results compared to the normal region growing
technique.
3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS
Simulation of the proposed method is done in
MATLAB. The simulated results of the proposed
method include the outputs of pre-processing stage,
modified texture segmentation stage and edge
detection stage. Also a comparison is made between
the outputs of the proposed method and manual
segmentation.
A sample MR brain image, simulated outputs of
pre-processing stage, modified texture segmentation
stage, edge detection stage and comparison of manual
segmentation and proposed method is shown in Fig.
(2-6).

From the simulated results, we can understand that
the integrated brain tumour detection technique
provides better and accurate results compared to the
manual segmentation technique.
4. CONCLUSION
Different image processing techniques are existing for
the detection of brain tumours from MRI images and
every method has its own benefits and drawbacks.
Here we propose an integrated brain tumour detection
technique which combines modified texture based
region growing segmentation and sobel based edge
detection. Experimental results have proved that it
provides accurate detection compared to the
individual classical methods and manual segmentation
methods. The future scope of the proposed technique
is that it can be extended to use it with other edge
detection methods. It can also be extended to detect
the tumours in other parts of the human body.
