Brain tumor is a kind of cancer, in which tissues in the brain grows rapidly and unevenly in the brains and causes huge threats on human life. Brain tumor is recognized as one of the common dreadful cancers among adults and it also affects the children too. This kind of cancer is categorized into two types, such as benign tumor and malignant tumor. However, benign tumor is curable, whereas recovering of patients whoever affected by malignant tumor has less chance to survive. Nowadays, MR images are usually employed to detect the kinds of brain tumor. Early classification and identification of tumor is significant to treat the tumor and saves the human life from early death. However, the classification of brain tumor and percentage in change detection using pre-operative and post-operative MR images is a very challenging task. In order to overcome such issues, this research proposes a new effective technique for brain tumor classification and determination of pixel change detection using proposed Deep Belief Network (DBN) + Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN). The process involves four phases, such as pre-processing, segmentation, feature extraction, and classification. The combination of DBN + CNN is employed for decision making based on error function. The DBN + CNN are trained utilizing the developed BirCat algorithm. Moreover, the proposed approach achieved a maximum accuracy of 0.957, sensitivity of 0.967, and specificity of 0.918.

Background: Detection of brain tumor is a complicated task which requires specialized skills and interpretation techniques. Accurate brain tumor classification and segmentation from MR images provide an essential choice for medical treatments. The different objects within an MR image have similar size, shape, and density which makes the tumor classification and segmentation even more complex. Objectives: Classification of the brain MR images into tumorous and non-tumorous using deep features and different classifiers to get higher accuracy. Methods: In this study, a novel four-step process is proposed; pre-processing for image enhancement and compression, feature extraction using convolutional neural networks (CNN), classification using the multilayer perceptron and finally, tumor segmentation using enhanced fuzzy c-means method. Results: The system is tested on 65 cases in four modalities consisting of 40,300 MR Images obtained from the BRATS-2015 dataset. These include images of 26 Low-Grade Glioma (LGG) tumor cases and 39 High-Grade Glioma (HGG) tumor cases. The proposed CNN features-based classification technique outperforms the existing methods by achieving an average accuracy of 98.77% and a noticeable improvement in the segmentation results are measured. Conclusion: The proposed method for brain MR image classification to detect Glioma Tumor detection can be adopted as it gives better results with high accuracies.

Brain tumor is one of the leading disease in the world. So automated identification and classification of tumors are important for diagnosis. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)is widely used modality for imaging brain. Brain tumor classification refers to classify the brain MR images as normal or abnormal, benign or malignant, low grade or high grade or types. This paper reviews various techniques used for the classification of brain tumors from MR images. Brain tumor classification can be divided into three phases as preprocessing, feature extraction and classification. As segmentation is not mandatory for classification, hence resides in the first phase. The feature extraction phase also contains feature reduction. DWT is efficient for both preprocessing and feature extraction. Texture analysis based on GLCM gives better features for classification where PCA reduces the feature vector maintaining the accuracy of classification of brain MRI. Shape features are important where segmentation has already been performed. The use of SVM along with appropriate kernel techniques can help in classifying the brain tumors from MRI. High accuracy has been achieved to classify brain MRI as normal or abnormal, benign or malignant and low grade or high grade. But classifying the tumors into more particular types is more challenging.

A brain tumor is an uncontrolled growth of abnormal brain tissue that can interfere with normal brain function. Although various methods have been developed for brain tumor classification, tumor detection and multiclass classification remain challenging due to the complex characteristics of the brain tumor. Brain tumor detection and classification are one of the most challenging and time-consuming tasks in the processing of medical images. MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is a visual imaging technique, which provides a information about the soft tissues of the human body, which helps identify the brain tumor. Proper diagnosis can prevent a patient's health to some extent. This paper presents a review of various detection and classification methods for brain tumor classification using image processing techniques.
