Brain Tumor Detection in DIP

PRESENTED BY :
Introduction of Tumor

 A tumor is a solid lesion formed by an abnormal

growth of cells which looks like a swelling

A tumor can be of three types :

- Benign
- Pre-Malignant
- Malignant
Tumor Detection

 In a MRI scan a tumor appears brighter than

its surrounding due to which it can be
detected by using a Digital Image Processing
Technique called as Segmentation
Methodology
Preprocessing

 Loading Image
 Grayscale Conversion
 High Pass Filter
 Enhanced Image

img= imread('1.jpg');
img_gray=rgb2gray(img);
hp_fil=[-1 2 -1;0 0 0;1 -2 1];
Preprocessing ...
Threshold Segmentation

 To make a binary image of the MRI

T = graythresh(c);
bw = im2bw(c,T+0.3);
imshow(bw);
Watershed Segmentation

 To group pixels on the basis of their

intensities

bw5=watershed(bw1);
imshow(bw5);
Morphological Operators
 Strel Mask
 Imdilate Command
 Imerode Command

SE = strel('disk',0);
bw1 = imerode(bw,SE);
imshow(bw1);

SE = strel('disk',0);
bw1 = imdilate(bw1,SE);
imshow(bw1);
 Morphological Operators …

Imerode With strel('disk',1); Imdilate With strel('disk',1);

 Morphological Operators …

Imerode With strel('disk',6); Imdilate With strel('disk',6);
