The diagnosis and segmentation of tumors using any medical diagnostic tool can be challenging due to the varying nature of this pathology. Magnetic Reso- nance Imaging (MRI) is an established diagnostic tool for various diseases and disorders and plays a major role in clinical neuro-diagnosis. Supplementing this technique with automated classification and segmentation tools is gaining importance, to reduce errors and time needed to make a conclusive diagnosis. In this paper a simple three-step algorithm is proposed; (1) identification of patients that present with tumors, (2) automatic selection of abnormal slices of the patients, and (3) segmentation and detection of the tumor. Features were extracted by using discrete wavelet transform on the normalized images and classified by support vector machine (for step (1)) and random forest (for step (2)). The 400 subjects were divided in a 3:1 ratio between training and test with no overlap. This study is novel in terms of use of data, as it employed the entire T2 weighted slices as a single image for classification and a unique combination of contralateral approach with patch thresholding for segmentation, which does not require a training set or a template as is used by most segmentation studies. Using the proposed method, the tumors were segmented accurately with a classification accuracy of 95% with 100% specificity and 90% sensitivity.

This paper introduces a novel methodology to integrate human brain connectomics and parcellation for brain tumor segmentation and survival prediction. For segmentation, we utilize an existing brain parcellation atlas in the MNI152 1mm space and map t
his parcellation to each individual subject data. We use deep neural network architectures together with hard negative mining to achieve the final voxel level classification. For survival prediction, we present a new method for combining features from connectomics data, brain parcellation information, and the brain tumor mask. We leverage the average connectome information from the Human Connectome Project and map each subject brain volume onto this common connectome space. From this, we compute tractographic features that describe potential neural disruptions due to the brain tumor. These features are then used to predict the overall survival of the subjects. The main novelty in the proposed methods is the use of normalized brain parcellation data and tractography data from the human connectome project for analyzing MR images for segmentation and survival prediction. Experimental results are reported on the BraTS2018 dataset.
Medical image analysis using deep neural networks has been actively studied. Deep neural networks are trained by learning data. For accurate training of deep neural networks, the learning data should be sufficient, of good quality, and should have a
generalized property. However, in medical images, it is difficult to acquire sufficient patient data because of the difficulty of patient recruitment, the burden of annotation of lesions by experts, and the invasion of patients privacy. In comparison, the medical images of healthy volunteers can be easily acquired. Using healthy brain images, the proposed method synthesizes multi-contrast magnetic resonance images of brain tumors. Because tumors have complex features, the proposed method simplifies them into concentric circles that are easily controllable. Then it converts the concentric circles into various realistic shapes of tumors through deep neural networks. Because numerous healthy brain images are easily available, our method can synthesize a huge number of the brain tumor images with various concentric circles. We performed qualitative and quantitative analysis to assess the usefulness of augmented data from the proposed method.

Recently deep learning has been playing a major role in the field of computer vision. One of its applications is the reduction of human judgment in the diagnosis of diseases. Especially, brain tumor diagnosis requires high accuracy, where minute erro
rs in judgment may lead to disaster. For this reason, brain tumor segmentation is an important challenge for medical purposes. Currently several methods exist for tumor segmentation but they all lack high accuracy. Here we present a solution for brain tumor segmenting by using deep learning. In this work, we studied different angles of brain MR images and applied different networks for segmentation. The effect of using separate networks for segmentation of MR images is evaluated by comparing the results with a single network. Experimental evaluations of the networks show that Dice score of 0.73 is achieved for a single network and 0.79 in obtained for multiple networks.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an important diagnostic tool for precise detection of various pathologies. Magnetic Resonance (MR) is more preferred than Computed Tomography (CT) due to the high resolution in MR images which help in better detect
ion of neurological conditions. Graphical user interface (GUI) aided disease detection has become increasingly useful due to the increasing workload of doctors. In this proposed work, a novel two steps GUI technique for brain tumor segmentation as well as Brodmann area detec-tion of the segmented tumor is proposed. A data set of T2 weighted images of 15 patients is used for validating the proposed method. The patient data incor-porates variations in ethnicities, gender (male and female) and age (25-50), thus enhancing the authenticity of the proposed method. The tumors were segmented using Fuzzy C Means Clustering and Brodmann area detection was done using a known template, mapping each area to the segmented tumor image. The proposed method was found to be fairly accurate and robust in detecting tumor.
In medical applications, the same anatomical structures may be observed in multiple modalities despite the different image characteristics. Currently, most deep models for multimodal segmentation rely on paired registered images. However, multimodal
paired registered images are difficult to obtain in many cases. Therefore, developing a model that can segment the target objects from different modalities with unpaired images is significant for many clinical applications. In this work, we propose a novel two-stream translation and segmentation unified attentional generative adversarial network (UAGAN), which can perform any-to-any image modality translation and segment the target objects simultaneously in the case where two or more modalities are available. The translation stream is used to capture modality-invariant features of the target anatomical structures. In addition, to focus on segmentation-related features, we add attentional blocks to extract valuable features from the translation stream. Experiments on three-modality brain tumor segmentation indicate that UAGAN outperforms the existing methods in most cases.
