Brain tumors are considered as most fatal cancers. To reduce the risk of death, early identification of the disease is required. One of the best available methods to evaluate brain tumors is Magnetic resonance Images (MRI). Brain tumor detection and segmentation are tough as brain tumors may vary in size, shape, and location. That makes manual detection of brain tumors by exploring MRI a tedious job for radiologists and doctors'. So an automated brain tumor detection and segmentation is required. This work suggests a Region-based Convolution Neural Network (RCNN) approach for automated brain tumor identification and segmentation using MR images, which helps solve the difficulties of brain tumor identification efficiently and accurately. Our methodology is based on the accurate and efficient selection of tumorous areas. That reduces computational complexity and time. We have validated the designed experimental setup on a standard dataset, BraTS 2020. We used binary evaluation matrices based on Dice Similarity Coefficient (DSC) and Mean Average Precision (mAP). The segmentation results are compared with state-of-the-art methodologies to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. The suggested approach attained an average DSC of 0.92 and mAP 0.92 for 10 patients, while on the whole dataset, the scores are DSC 0.89 and mAP 0.90. The following results clearly show the performance efficiency of the proposed methodology.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
