ABSTRACT
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is increasingly being used in medical field because of its
ability to produce, non-invasively, high quality images of the inside of the human body. Since its
introduction in early 70’s, more and more complex acquisition techniques have been proposed,
raising MRI to be exploited in a wide spectrum of applications. Medical imaging seeks to reveal
internal structures hidden by the skin and bones, as well as to diagnose and treat disease. In that
way, MRI has become a useful medical diagnostic tool for the diagnosis of brain and other
medical images. Brain Tumor extraction and its analysis are challenging tasks in medical image
processing because brain image is complicated. Detection of brain tumor is one of the emerging
topics of research in biomedical image processing. Accurate detection is critical, especially when
the tumor morphological changes remain subtle, irregular and difficult to assess by clinical
examination. Brain Tumor is one of the frequent and leading causes of mortality, especially in
developed countries. Though brain tumor leads to death, early detection can increase the survival
rate.
In this dissertation work the main emphasis laid on to design an approach, which is a detection
technique so that the proposed effectively detects and diagnose the tumor in their early stage. In
this the threshold selection is done on the basis of different entropy measures such as Shannon,
Renyi, Havrda-Charvat, Kapur and Vajda entropy measures that has been used in order to detect
the Brain Tumor from MRI Images. Simulation results for different entropy measures are also
presented. At the end of the process tumor is extracted from the MRI images and its exact
position and shape are determined and various parameters like contrast, angular momentum and
entropy value have been calculated.
Here an efficient detection of brain tumor has been introduced and it has been observed that
Havrda Charvat Entropy measure provides satisfactory results in early detection of Brain Tumor.
The proposed work has been applied on MRI Images in order to get more clear and enhanced
picture of the Tumor for its early detection. Thus the developed approach is introduced to solve
the problem for tumor case of clinical MRI analysis and extracted the size and other dimensions
of tumor automatically by accurately computing the abnormal tissue areas.
