Segmentation of the White Matter from the Brain fMRI Images 

Abstract

Segmentation of the white matter from the brain fMRI images for the study of brain activities and for the diagnosis for various brain related diseases caused by the changes and damages to regions of the brain continues on a manual time consuming segmentation technique. We present a solution for automatic segmentation of the brain fMRI images; the solution contains three steps which are pre-processing the raw images, threshold estimation using an Otsu’s algorithm and finally performing the segmentation by binarization of the images based on the calculated threshold value.
