Brain Tumour Extration From MR Images Using Segmentation Techniques: A Review

Medical image processing has dramatically revolutionized the health care sector by helping clinicians towards early and accurate diagnosis of the disease. MRI is one of the most versatile and widely used imaging modality. Brain tumours are the abnormal growth of tissues and this can be benign and malign subject to the tumour location and size, which are often difficult to visually diagnose from MRI film. Therefore, several image processing techniques have been developed and in use for accurate and early detection. Image Segmentation typically applied to detect a specific region in an image and is often used in biomedical field. One of the most challenging implementation of this technique is in brain tumour recognition. This paper presents a comparative study of different segmentation techniques for extraction of tumour from MRI images.
