  • Anam Mustaqeem
چکیده

During past few years, brain tumor segmentation in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become an emergent research area in the field of medical imaging system. Brain tumor detection helps in finding the exact size and location of tumor. An efficient algorithm is proposed in this paper for tumor detection based on segmentation and morphological operators. Firstly quality of scanned image is enhanced and then morphological operators are applied to detect the tumor in the scanned image.

Comparative Evaluation of Thresholding and Segmentation Algorithms

Segmentation of brain tumor manually consumes more time and it is a challenging task. This paper detects the tumor inside the brain by doing segmentation and extraction of the tumor which is been detected. To prove the efficiency of the detection of brain tumor we have performed a comparative study of two segmentation algorithms namely “watershed segmentation algorithm” and “k-means clustering ...
