ABSTRACT
Image processing is a process where input image is processed to get output also as an image or attributes of the image. Main aim of all image processing techniques is to recognize the image or object under consideration easier visually. Segmentation of images holds a crucial position in the field of image processing. In medical imaging, segmentation is important for feature extraction, image measurements and image display. A tumor can be defined as a mass which grows without any control of normal forces. Real time diagnosis of tumors by using more reliable algorithms has been an active of the latest developments in medical imaging and detection of brain tumor in MR and CT scan images. Hence image segmentation is the fundamental problem used in tumor detection. Image segmentation can be defined as the partition or segmentation of a digital image into similar regions with a main aim to simplify the image under consideration into something that is more meaningful and easier to analyze visually.
Brain tumor is an abnormal growth caused by cells reproducing themselves in an uncontrolled manner. Magnetic Resonance Imager (MRI) is the commonly used device for diagnosis. In MR images, the amount of data is too much for manual interpretation and analysis. During the past few years, brain tumor segmentation in Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI) has become an emergent research area in the field of medical imaging system. Accurate detection of size and location of brain tumor plays a vital role in the diagnosis of tumor. Image processing is an active research area in which medical image processing is a highly challenging field. Image segmentation plays a significant role in image processing as it helps in the extraction of suspicious regions from the medical images. In this project an efficient algorithm is proposed for tumor detection based on segmentation of brain MRI images using KNN clustering. This project is developed in matlab.
