Medical Evaluation of Marker Controlled Watershed Technique for Detecting Brain Tumors
نویسندگان
چکیده
Image Segmentation has a vital role in the field of Medical Science especially in the area of cancer research for detecting tumors. Proper diagnosis and effective treatment is only possible if we have an efficient segmenting technique. In this paper we present a sound segmentation technique named as marker controlled watershed technique which is based on repeated morphological image dilation and erosion operations to carry out segmentation. After segmenting the desired area we evaluate this technique for its accuracy and performance.

Bladder cancer is one of the most common forms of cancers in the world. The current gold standards for itsdiagnosis are cystoscopy and urine cytology. Cystoscopy, a naked eye assessment of the bladder, is invasive, uncomfortable and costly with a great deal of personal variability in its results; while urine cytology has high specificity but low sensitivity, particularly for low-grade les...

Oral cancer is a significant health problem throughout the world. It is very important to detect such types of cancer at an earlier stage than the later stage where the treatment becomes unsuccessful. Early detection helps surgeons to provide necessary therapeutic measures which also benefit the patients. In this paper, a technique is proposed to detect cancers present in mouth provided by an O...
متن کاملBrain Tumor Segmentation Based on Structuring Element Map Modification and Marker-controlled Watershed Transform
Brain medical images are generally prone to noise and also fraught with intensity heterogeneity within the tumor. Fuzzy and boundary discontinuity caused by the tumor also adversely affects the accuracy of the tumor segmentation. A method based on morphological structuring element map modification and markercontrolled watershed segmentation is proposed. Firstly, a structuring element map is con...
