In this paper we introduce a noise-resilient edge detection algorithm for brain MRI images. Also, an improved edge detection based on Canny edge detection algorithm is proposed. Computer simulations show that the proposed algorithm is resilient to impulsive noise which makes up for the disadvantages of Canny algorithm, and can detect more edges of MRI brain images effectively. Also, the concept of...Show More
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has commonly been used to detect and diagnose brain disease and monitor treatment as non-invasive imaging technology. MRI produces three-dimensional images that help neurologists to identify anomalies from brain images precisely. However, this is a time-consuming and labor-intensive process. The improvement in machine learning and efficient computation provides a c...Show More
In this paper we present a methodology to address the problem of brain tissue deformation referred to as 'brain-shift'. This deformation occurs throughout a neurosurgery intervention and strongly alters the accuracy of the neuronavigation systems used to date in clinical routine which rely solely on pre-operative patient imaging to locate the surgical target, such as a tumour or a functional area....Show More
The brain tumor is a disease that affects or harms the brain with unwanted tissues. This is very difficult to detect brain tumor tissue from whole brain. Early detection of tumor is very important to save patient's life. Detection or segmentation techniques are used to detect and segment the brain-tumor region from the MRI images of brain and it is very useful method in recent days. In medical, ma...Show More
Brain tumor is an abnormal mass or tissue that grows within the brain or its surroundings. Majorly there are three types of brain tumors i.e., Glioma, Meningioma, and Pituitary. As per their origin for the medical practitioner. It is very much required to position the tumor within the brain and its surroundings so that the necessary diagnosis can take place in this research. We considered T1 weigh...Show More

This research discusses recent breakthroughs in brain tumour categorisation using MRI and a deep learning algorithm. Traditional brain tumour classifications cannot characterise complicated tumours similarly or use multimodal MRI data extensively. To overcome these constraints, Structural MRI, Functional MRI, Diffusion-Weighted Imaging (DWI), and Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) are rigorousl...Show More
Atlas-based approaches have demonstrated the ability to automatically identify detailed brain structures from 3-D magnetic resonance (MR) brain images. Unfortunately, the accuracy of this type of method often degrades when processing data acquired on a different scanner platform or pulse sequence than the data used for the atlas training. In this paper, we improve the performance of an atlas-based...Show More
This paper critically examines the different segmentation techniques adopted for segmentation of MRI brain Tumour images. Brain images mostly contain noise, inhomogeneity and sometimes deviation. Therefore, accurate segmentation of brain images is a very difficult task. The process of segmentation is still challenging due to the diversity of shape, location, and size of the tumour. This study has ...Show More
Brain tumour detection through medical Imaging is the most challenging and time-consuming procedure. A medical specialist may use magnetic resonance imaging, also known as magnetic resonance imaging, as a diagnostic technique to show the internal structure of the tissue. Brain tumors can be determined using magnetic resonance imaging, which offers detailed information about sensitive human tissue....Show More
Thin-section magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can provide higher resolution anatomical structures and more precise clinical information than thick-section images. However, thin-section MRI is not always available due to the imaging cost issue. In multicenter retrospective studies, a large number of data are often in thick-section manner with different section thickness. The lack of thin-section da...Show More
This paper presents a set of validation procedures for nonrigid registration of functional EPI to anatomical MRI brain images. Although various registration techniques have been developed and validated for high-resolution anatomical MRI images, due to a lack of quantitative and qualitative validation procedures, the use of nonrigid registration between functional EPI and anatomical MRI images has ...Show More
Brain tumors pose a significant threat to life and disrupt the normal functioning of the human body. Early detection is key to precise diagnosis and effective treatment planning. MRI, or Magnetic resonance imaging is instrumental, in identifying, assessing, and tracking brain tumors. However, a definitive diagnosis still depends on surgical pathology. Therefore, this work focusses on applying mach...Show More
Brain connectivity analysis is a new multidisciplinary approach in neuroscience for determining neurological disorders from brain imaging data. But, there is no end-to-end toolchain that processes raw MRI data and extracts brain connectivity network metrics. Again, the existing method of cortical parcellation from MRI data is mainly based on fixed Brodmann atlas; which does not support neonate's b...Show More
