Beyin Tümörü Tespitinde Görüntü Bölütleme Yöntemlerine Ait Başarımların Karşılaştırılması ve Analizi

Görüntü işleme teknikleri klinik karar destek sistemlerinde (KKDS) sıklıkla kullanılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada çağın önemli bir hastalığı olan beyin tümörlerinin görüntü işleme teknikleri ile tespit görüntülerinden (MRI) yararlanarak beyin tümörünün görüntü segmentasyonu ile tespit edilmesine yönelik bir çalışma gerçekleştirilmiştir. Devlet hastanelerinden MR görüntüleri resmi izinlerle alınmış ve çalışmada kullanılmıştır. Markov Random Field (MRF), Kapur, Kittler ve Otsu algoritmaları ile MR görüntülerindeki tümörlü bölgeler tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Algoritmalar, MR görüntülerinin daha önceden belirlenmiş bölgelerine (ROI - Region of Interest) ayrı ayrı uygulanmıştır. Yapılan deneysel uygulamada Markov Random Field (MRF) algoritmasının beyin tümörü tespitinde diğer algoritmalara oranla daha başarılı sonuçlar verdiği gözlemlenmiştir

Comparison and Performance Analysis of Image Segmentation Algorithms on Brain Tumor Detection

Image processing techniques in Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) are often used. In this study, image processing techniques are used in order to detect a common disease, brain tumor. Brain tumors in magnetic resonance images (MRI) are detected by using image segmentation algorithms. MR images have been taken from state hospitals with official permissions in order to use in the study. Brain tumors in MR images are tried to be detected through the Markov Random Field (MRF), Kapur, Kittler and Otsu algorithms. Algorithms were tested on the specific regions (ROI – Region of Interest) of MR images, separately. In experimental applications, Markov Random Field (MRF) algorithm has given more accurate results than the other algorithms
