The segmentation of brain tumor using Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) plays an important role in the medical image process. This paper presents a comprehensive survey on brain tumor methods and technology using MRI images. Generally, brain tumor segmentation methods can divided into two main categories, spatial continuous and spatial discrete methods. Several methods, techniques, related advantage and weakness will be described and discussed. The evaluation measures are mentioned and the qualities of different method focus on the methods that were applied on the standard data sets. The efficient and stably brain tumor segmentation is still a challenging task for the unpredictable appearance and shape of the brain tumor.
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.
