چکیده

The hi-tech development has led great success in both scientific and technical fields. Therefore we can obviously note that data processing takes less execution time and a smaller amount of human efforts. This is the advantage of the automatic line of work which aimed to reduce either physical or intellectual human effort. Furthermore it focused to let the painful and complex tasks to the machine including the computer. In our framework, the processing of medical images (brain MRI) is transferred to the computer so the setting up of processing algorithms becomes an axis of rich researches highly open to discussion and development in our work, and we know that MRI is an effective examination of disease diagnosis, In this paper, we present our own method of brain extraction inspired by different methods in the literature namely brain method (BET; BSE, MSPL; MCSTRIP; TMBE ...) and different segmentation algorithms. Then, we compare our own way to other methods with excellent results using supervised evaluation criteria both outline and region.

Fast and Accurate Brain Image Retrieval Using Gabor Wavelet Algorithm

Abstract— CBIR in medical image databases are used to assist physician in diagnosis the diseases and also used to aid diagnosis by identifying similar past cases. In order to retrieve a fast, accurate and an effective similarity of images from the large data set. The pre-processing step is extraction of brain. It removes the unwanted non-brain areas like scalp, skull, neck, eyes, ear etc from t...

Simultaneous cortical surface labeling and sulcal curve extraction

Automatic labeling of the gyri and sulci on the cortical surface is important for studying cortical morphology and brain functions within populations. A method to simultaneously label gyral regions and extract sulcal curves is proposed. Assuming that the gyral regions parcellate the whole cortical surface into contiguous regions with certain fixed topology, the proposed method labels the subjec...

Segmentation of brain tissue from magnetic resonance images

Segmentation of medical imagery is a challenging problem due to the complexity of the images, as well as to the absence of models of the anatomy that fully capture the possible deformations in each structure. The brain is a particularly complex structure, and its segmentation is an important step for many problems, including studies in temporal change detection of morphology, and 3-D visualizat...

A Novel Statistical Approach for Segmentation of Single-Channel Brain MRI Using an Improved EM algorithm

This paper presents a novel statistical method for segmentation of single-channel brain magnetic resonance (MR) image data. The method based on an improved expectation maximization (EM) algorithm proposed in this paper involves three steps. Firstly, after pre-processing the image with the curvature anisotropic diffusion filter, the background (BG) and brain masks of the image are obtained by ap...

Brain MRI Segmentation with Multiphase Minimal Partitioning: A Comparative Study

This paper presents the implementation and quantitative evaluation of a multiphase three-dimensional deformable model in a level set framework for automated segmentation of brain MRIs. The segmentation algorithm performs an optimal partitioning of three-dimensional data based on homogeneity measures that naturally evolves to the extraction of different tissue types in the brain. Random seed ini...
