Brain Tumour Texture Analysis-A Method
Journal Title: Journal of Quality in Health Care & Economics (JQHE) - Year 2021, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Computer aided technology is used in biomedical image processing. In biomedical analysis features are extracted and then the proposed method will detect any abnormalities present or not in the system to be considered. In recent days the detection of brain tumour through image processing is made in medical diagnosis. The separation of tumor is made by the process of segmentation. Brain in human is the most complicated and delicate anatomical structure. There are various brain ailments in human but the indication of cancer in brain tumour may be fatal for the human. Brain tumor can be malignant or benign. The neurologist or neurosurgeon wants to know the exact location, size, shape and texture of tumor from Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of brain before going to the operation of the brain tumour or decided whether operation of removing brain tumour is at all necessary or not. The disease is analyzed since operation may cause death to the patient. Initially they took a chance by prescribing medicines to see whether there is any improvement of the condition of the patient. If the result is not satisfactory then there is no option other than operation of the tumor. Doctors also take an attempt to find the texture of the tumor since it may help them to know the progress of the tumour. In addition to Brain tumor segmentation, the detection of surface of the texture of brain tumor is required for proper treatment. The chapter proposed methods for detection of the progressive nature of the texture in the tumor presence in brain. For this process segmentation of tumor from other parts of brain is essential. In the chapter segmentation techniques are presented before the texture analysis process is given. Finally, comparisons of the proposed method with other methods are analyzed.
