چکیده

The image processing is an interesting and challenging field now a days and medical image processing plays a major role in it. The medical images are used to analysis the diseases like brain tumor, cancer, diabetes, etc. The brain tumor is one of the dangerous diseases where many people suffer from this disease. Image segmentation is used to take out the suspicious parts from medical images like MRI, CT scan, and Mammography etc. For MRI brain image segmentation adaptive k means clustering is used. The feature extraction is done using the GLCM (Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix) which stay away from the creation of misclustered region. The feature selection is done to improve the classifier accuracy using PCA (Principle Component Analysis). A PSVM (Proximal Support Vector Machines) classifier is used to automatically detect the tumor from MR brain image which is faster and efficient than the existing method SVM.

Diagnosis of brain tumor using PNN neural networks

Cells grow and then need a very neat method to create new cells that work properly to maintain the health of the body. When the ability to control the growth of the cells is lost, they are unconsidered and often divided without order. Exemplified cells form a tissue mass called the tumor. In fact, brain tumors are abnormal and uncontrolled cell proliferations. Segmentation methods are used in b...

Introduction: Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging has emerged as a valuable tool in radiation treatment (RT) planning as well as Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging owing to its superior soft-tissue contrast. Due to the fact that there is no direct transformation from voxel intensity in MR images into electron density, itchr('39')s crucial to generate a pseudo-CT (Computed Tomography) image ...
