Severity Analysis of Brain Tumor in MRI Images Using Modified Multi-texton Structure Descriptor and Kernel-SVM

A Review of Recent Advances in Brain Tumor Diagnosis Based on AI-Based Classification

Uncontrolled and fast cell proliferation is the cause of brain tumors. Early cancer detection is vitally important to save many lives. Brain tumors can be divided into several categories depending on the kind, place of origin, pace of development, and stage of progression; as a result, tumor classification is crucial for targeted therapy. Brain tumor segmentation aims to delineate accurately the areas of brain tumors. A specialist with a thorough understanding of brain illnesses is needed to manually identify the proper type of brain tumor. Additionally, processing many images takes time and is tiresome. Therefore, automatic segmentation and classification techniques are required to speed up and enhance the diagnosis of brain tumors. Tumors can be quickly and safely detected by brain scans using imaging modalities, including computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and others. Machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) have shown promise in developing algorithms that aid in automatic classification and segmentation utilizing various imaging modalities. The right segmentation method must be used to precisely classify patients with brain tumors to enhance diagnosis and treatment. This review describes multiple types of brain tumors, publicly accessible datasets, enhancement methods, segmentation, feature extraction, classification, machine learning techniques, deep learning, and learning through a transfer to study brain tumors. In this study, we attempted to synthesize brain cancer imaging modalities with automatically computer-assisted methodologies for brain cancer characterization in ML and DL frameworks. Finding the current problems with the engineering methodologies currently in use and predicting a future paradigm are other goals of this article.

A New Model for Brain Tumor Detection Using Ensemble Transfer Learning and Quantum Variational Classifier

A brain tumor is an abnormal enlargement of cells if not properly diagnosed. Early detection of a brain tumor is critical for clinical practice and survival rates. Brain tumors arise in a variety of shapes, sizes, and features, with variable treatment options. Manual detection of tumors is difficult, time-consuming, and error-prone. Therefore, a significant requirement for computerized diagnostics systems for accurate brain tumor detection is present. In this research, deep features are extracted from the inceptionv3 model, in which score vector is acquired from softmax and supplied to the quantum variational classifier (QVR) for discrimination between glioma, meningioma, no tumor, and pituitary tumor. The classified tumor images have been passed to the proposed Seg-network where the actual infected region is segmented to analyze the tumor severity level. The outcomes of the reported research have been evaluated on three benchmark datasets such as Kaggle, 2020-BRATS, and local collected images. The model achieved greater than 90% detection scores to prove the proposed model's effectiveness.

Hybrid Melanoma Classification System Using Multi-Layer Fuzzy C-Means Clustering and Deep Convolutional Neural Network

Skin cancer is considered one of the most common type of cancer in several countries. Due to the difficulty and subjectivity in the clinical diagnosis of skin lesions, Computer-Aided Diagnosis systems are being developed for assist experts to perform more reliable diagnosis. The clinical analysis and diagnosis of skin lesions relies not only on the visual information but also on the context information provided by the patient. Skin lesion segmentation plays a significant part in the earlier and precise identification of skin cancer using computer aided diagnosis (CAD) models. But, the segmentation of skin lesions in dermoscopic images is a difficult process due to the constraints of artefacts (hairs, gel bubbles, ruler markers), unclear boundaries, poor and so on. In this work, multi class skin lesion classification system is developed based on multi layered Fuzzy C-means clustering and deep convolutional neural networks. Evaluate the performance of the proposed MLFCM with DCNN model on multi class skin cancer Dermoscopy images. Our results suggest that it is possible to boost the performance of skin lesion segmentation and classification simultaneously via training a unified model to perform both tasks in a mutual bootstrapping way.

Background:

The application of image processing algorithms for medical image analysis has been found effectual in the past years. Imaging techniques provide assistance to the radiologists and physicians for the diagnosis of abnormalities in different organs.

The proposed algorithm is designed for automatic computer-aided diagnosis of liver cancer from low contrast CT images. The idea expressed in this article is to classify the malignancy of the liver tumor ahead of liver segmentation and to locate HCC burden on the liver.

Methods:

A novel Fuzzy Linguistic Constant (FLC) is designed for image enhancement. To classify the enhanced liver image as cancerous or non-cancerous, fuzzy membership function is applied. The extracted features are assessed for malignancy and benignancy using the structural similarity index. The malignant CT image is further processed for automatic tumor segmentation and grading by applying morphological image processing techniques.

Results:

The validity of the concept is verified on a dataset of 179 clinical cases which consist of 98 benign and 81 malignant liver tumors. Classification accuracy of 98.3% is achieved by Support Vector Machine (SVM). The proposed method has the ability to automatically segment the tumor with an improved detection rate of 78% and a precision value of 0.6.

Conclusion:

The algorithm design offers an efficient tool to the radiologist in classifying the malignant cases from benign cases. The CAD system allows automatic segmentation of tumor and locates tumor burden on the liver. The methodology adopted can aid medical practitioners in tumor diagnosis and surgery planning.

A review on brain tumor diagnosis from MRI images: Practical implications, key achievements, and lessons learned

The successful early diagnosis of brain tumors plays a major role in improving the treatment outcomes and thus improving patient survival. Manually evaluating the numerous magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images produced routinely in the clinic is a difficult process. Thus, there is a crucial need for computer-aided methods with better accuracy for early tumor diagnosis. Computer-aided brain tumor diagnosis from MRI images consists of tumor detection, segmentation, and classification processes. Over the past few years, many studies have focused on traditional or classical machine learning techniques for brain tumor diagnosis. Recently, interest has developed in using deep learning techniques for diagnosing brain tumors with better accuracy and robustness. This study presents a comprehensive review of traditional machine learning techniques and evolving deep learning techniques for brain tumor diagnosis.

Meningioma is the one of the most common type of brain tumor, it as arises from the meninges and encloses the spine and the brain inside the skull. It accounts for 30% of all types of brain tumor. Meningioma's can occur in many parts of the brain and accordingly it is named. In this paper, a mixture model based classification of meningioma brain tumor using MRI image is developed. The proposed method consists of four stages. In the first stage, with respect to the cells' boundary, it is necessary to further processing, which ensures the boundary of some cells is a discrete region. Mathematical Morphology brings a fancy result during the discrete processing. Accurate cancer cell nucleus segmentation is necessary for automated cytological image analysis.
