An Efficient Brain Tumor Detection Algorithm based on Segmentation for MRI System

A collection, or mass, of abnormal cells in the brain is called as Brain Tumor . The skull, which encloses your brain, is very rigid. Growth inside such a restricted space can cause problems. Brain tumors can be malignant or benign. Segmentation in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was an emergent research area in the field of medical imaging system. In this an efficient algorithm is proposed for tumor detection based on segmentation and morphological operators. Quality of scanned image is enhanced and then morphological operators are applied to detect the tumor in the scanned image. Merlin Asha. M | G. Naveen Balaji | S. Mythili | A. Karthikeyan | N.
