Introduction: Brain tumor is among the major causes of morbidity and mortality rates worldwide. According to National Brain Tumor Foundation (NBTS), the death rate has nearly increased by as much as 300% over last couple of decades. Tumors can be categorized as benign (non-cancerous) and malignant (cancerous). The type of the brain tumor significantly depends on various factors like the site of its occurrence, its shape, the age of the subject etc. On the other hand, Computer Aided Detection (CAD) has been improving significantly in recent times. The concept, design and implementation of these systems ascend from fairly simple ones to computationally intense ones. For efficient and effective diagnosis and treatment plans in brain tumor studies, it is imperative that an abnormality is detected at an early stage as it provides a little more time for medical professionals to respond. The early detection of diseases has predominantly been possible because of medical imaging techniques developed from past many decades like CT, MRI, PET, SPECT, FMRI etc. The detection of brain tumors however, has always been a challenging task because of the complex structure of the brain, diverse tumor sizes and locations in the brain. Method: This paper proposes an algorithm that can detect the brain tumors in the presence of the Radio-Frequency (RF) inhomoginiety. The algorithm utilizes the Mid Sagittal Plane as a landmark point across which the asymmetry between the two brain hemispheres is estimated using various intensity and texture based parameters. Result: The results show the efficacy of the proposed method for the detection of the brain tumors with an acceptable detection rate. Conclusion: In this paper, we have calculated three textural features from the two hemispheres of the brain viz: Contrast (CON), Entropy (ENT) and Homogeneity (HOM) and three parameters viz: Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Correlation Co-efficient (CC), and Integral of Absolute Difference (IAD) from the intensity distribution profiles of the two brain hemispheres to predict any presence of the pathology. First a Mid Sagittal Plane (MSP) is obtained on the Magnetic Resonance Images that virtually divides brain into two bilaterally symmetric hemispheres. The block wise texture asymmetry is estimated for these hemispheres using the above 6 parameters.

Background: Although magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is effective in detecting the location of intracranial tumors, new imaging techniques have been studied that may enhance the specificity for the prediction of histologic grade of tumor and for the distinction between recurrence and tumor necrosis associated with cancer therapy. Methods: The authors review their experience and that of others on the use of perfusion magnetic resonance imaging to evaluate responses of brain tumors to new therapies. Results: Functional imaging techniques that can distinguish tumor from normal brain tissue using physiological parameters. These new approaches provide maps of tumor perfusion to monitor the effects of novel compounds that restrict tumor angiogenesis. Conclusions: Perfusion MRI not only may be as effective as radionuclide-based techniques in sensitivity and specificity in assessing brain tumor responses to new therapies, but also may offer higher resolution and convenient co-registration with conventional MRI, as well as time- and cost-effectiveness. Further study is needed to determine the role of perfusion MRI in assessing brain tumor responses to new therapies.

Brain tumor segmentation is an essential and challenging task because of the heterogeneous nature of neoplastic tissue in spatial and imaging techniques. Manual segmentation of the tumor in MRI images is prone to error and time-consuming tasks. An efficient segmentation mechanism is vital to the accurate classification and segmentation of tumorous cells. This study presents an efficient hierarchical clustering-based dense CNN approach for accurately classifying and segmenting the brain tumor cells in MRI images. The research focuses on improving the efficiency of the segmentation algorithms by considering the qualitative measures such as the dice score coefficient using quantitative parameters such as mean square error and peak signal to noise ratio. The experimental analysis states the efficacy and prominence of the proposed technique compared to other models are tabulated within the paper.

The brain tumors are by far the most severe and violent disease, contributing to the highest degree of a very low life expectancy. Therefore, recovery preparation is a crucial step in improving patient quality of life. In general , different imaging techniques such as computed tomography ( CT), magnetic resonance imaging ( MRI) and ultrasound imaging have been used to examine the tumor in the brain, lung , liver, breast , prostate ... etc. MRI images are especially used in this research to diagnose tumor within the brain with classification results. The massive amount of data produced by the MRI scan, therefore, destroys the manual classification of tumor vs. non-tumor in a given period. However for a limited number of images, it is presented with some constraint that is precise quantitative measurements. Consequently, a trustworthy and automated classification scheme is important for preventing human death rates. The automatic classification of brain tumors is a very challenging task in broad spatial and structural heterogeneity of the surrounding brain tumor area. Automatic brain tumor identification is suggested in this research by the use of the classification with Deep Belief Network (DBN). Experimental results show that the DBN archive rate with low complexity seems to be 97 % accurate compared to all other state of the art methods.

<p>The purpose of this article is to investigate techniques for classifying tumor grade from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This requires early diagnosis of the brain tumor and its grade. Magnetic resonance imaging may show a clear tumor in the brain, but doctors need to measure the tumor in order to treat more or to advance treatment. For this purpose, digital imaging techniques along with machine learning can help to quickly identify tumors and also treatments and types of surgery. These combined techniques in understanding medical images for researchers are an important tool to increase the accuracy of diagnosis. In this paper, classification methods for MRI images of tumors of the human brain are performed to review the astrocytoma-containing glands. Methods used to classify brain tumors, including preprocessing, screening, tissue extraction, and statistical features of the tumor using two types of T<sub>1</sub>W and Flair brain MRI images and also the method of dimensionality reduction of extracted features and how to train them in classification are also explained. Determine the tumor area using three classification of Fuzzy Logic <em>C</em><em>-</em><em>Means</em><em> </em>Clustering (FCM), Probabilistic Neural Networks (PNN) and Support Vector Machines (SVM). In this paper, simulated and real MRI images are used. The results obtained from the proposed methods in this paper are compared with the reference results and the results show that the proposed approach can increase the reliability of brain tumor diagnosis.</p>
