A Survey on Brain Tumor Classification & Detection Techniques

A cancerous or non-cancerous mass or growth of abnormal cells in the brain. The research shows that in developed countries the main cause of death of people having brain tumor is incorrect detection of brain tumor. The X-ray, CT, MRI is used for initial diagnostic of the cancer. Today Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is widely used technique for the detection of brain tumor because it provides the more details then CT. The classification of tumor as a cancerous (malignant) or non cancerous (benign) is very difficult task due to the complexity of brain tissue. In this paper, review of various techniques of classification and detection of brain tumor with the use of Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) is discussed
