Automated Brain Tumor Detection and Classification in MRI Images: A Hybrid Image Processing Techniques

Abstract

Due to the complex structure of brain images, accurately detecting and segmenting brain tumors with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a difficult process. This paper suggests an automated brain tumor identification and segmentation approach employing hybrid salient segmentation with K-Means clustering and hybrid CLEACH-median filter algorithm on MRI images. The proposed method enhances the contrast and detail of MRI images using a hybrid CLEACH-median filter algorithm, and segments the most important features of the images using a hybrid salient segmentation method with K-Means clustering. The proposed method includes a stages classification step to determine the stage of the brain tumor. The findings show that the suggested approach outperformed existing methods in terms of efficiency and accuracy for both detecting and segmenting brain tumors. The suggested technique can be a useful tool for automating the detection and segmentation of brain tumors, which will help radiologists and physicians make quicker and more accurate diagnosis.
