Three-Phase Automatic Brain Tumor Diagnosis System Using Patches Based Updated Run Length Region Growing Technique.

Manually finding and segmenting brain tumor is a tedious process in MR brain images due to the unpredictable appearance of tissues with a different pattern, contour, mass, and positions. The proposed work has three phases automatic tumor diagnosis system for tumorous slice detection, segmentation, and visualization from MRI human head volumes. The proposed method has an automatic classification followed by segmentation and is called as patch-based updated run length region growing technique (PR2G).
