Abstract

The main objective of our task is to recognize a tumor and its quantifications from a particular MRI scan of a brain image using digital image processing techniques. The motivation of our work is to provide an efficient algorithm for detecting the brain tumor and calculating its growth. This research describes the proposed strategy to see & extract brain tumors from patients’ MRI scan images of the brain. This method incorporates noise removal functions, segmentation, morphological operations, and basic image processing concepts. Detection and extraction of tumors from MRI scan images of the brain are done using MATLAB software.
