Brain Tumor Detection using Fuzzy Morphology

Author(s): Dillip Ranjan Nayak

Medical image segmentation is a challenging task in fuzzy image processing. Tumor detection is the first phase to solve the segmentation problem. This paper describes the detection of the brain tumor by using fuzzy image segmentation. In this paper we present a novel technique for the detection of tumor in brain using fuzzy morphology and watershed segmentation. The proposed method can be successfully applied to detect the geometri- cal dimension of the tumor.
