An Improved Implementation for Brain Tumor Detection on CT scanImages
نویسندگان
چکیده
CT scan imaging has been popularly applied for the diagnosis of brain tumor and brain cyst. CT scan image alleviate the difficulties of physicians in order to visualize affected regions. However sometime it is difficult to visualize very minute regions of tumors and cysts and differentiate between them and sometime they are wrongly predicted due to very minute appearance in the CT scan image especially in early growing stages of brain tumor and cysts which are scanned by CT imaging but cannot be predicted or easily visualized by physician or health care professionals which results in delay in detection or wrong treatment of patient even if the patient have reported in early to the hospitals. Hence it becomes very important and necessary to develop such techniques to resolve this problem.

Introduction: 99mTc-MIBI has been proposed for use as an imaging agent for various tumors, including breast cancer, lung cancer, lymphomas, melanomas and brain neoplastic lesions. Brain tumors are very common and radiotherapy being major part of treatment following surgery. After radiotherapy, deteriorating clinical status can be due to either radiation necrosis or recurrent tumor. Comput...
متن کاملA Novel Fuzzy-C Means Image Segmentation Model for MRI Brain Tumor Diagnosis
Accurate segmentation of brain tumor plays a key role in the diagnosis of brain tumor. Preset and precise diagnosis of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) brain tumor is enormously significant for medical analysis. During the last years many methods have been proposed. In this research, a novel fuzzy approach has been proposed to classify a given MRI brain image as normal or cancer label and the i...

In this study, 22 patients (15-75 years old) were selected and transferred to CT scan for tumor ablation. For ablations, after prep and drep under the local anesthesia and mild sedation in proper position, small incision made and special needle inserted and guided by proper direction to the core of the tumor. Then, laser probe inserted through the needle and laser energy delivered. Although we ...

Introduction: Pixel value in computed tomography (CT) gives the average linear attenuation coefficient of the scanned material in the path of the x-ray beam, being normalized to that of water. It is known that attenuation coefficient or HU value is a function of the chemical characteristic of the material and of the x-ray energy. The CT image shows the HU value by a shade of gr...
