Mass Sphering Approach for Three-Dimensional Reconstruction of Brain Tumor using MRI

Abstract

Objective: The objective of the research work is to reconstruct the brain tumor three-dimensionally with high degree of accuracy. Methods: This study describes 3D reconstruction of brain tumor using Mass Sphering Approach (MSA) algorithm. 39 weighted features are extracted from the non-tumor and tumor pixels. These weighted features are used to train the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm. Number of training samples taken to train SVM algorithm are 268 and the testing sample are 64. The complete MR image set of a subject (64 axial slices) are detected for tumor pixels and these slices are concatenated to get volumetric tumor information. Findings: 5-step MSA algorithm is proposed which includes filtering, segmentation, classification, optimization and reconstruction. MR images are subjected to Rician noise which can be removed by a simple correction scheme, initiated to change the bias due to the Rician distribution of the noisy magnitude data. The filtered MR image slices are segmented and classified to detect the tumor areas and the tumor pixels are subjected for 3D reconstruction. The improvement in performance of MSA is depicted by comparing the algorithm with traditional SVM. Novelty: The accuracy achieved in detecting glioma and glioblastoma using MSA are 95.24% and 99% respectively which is highly remarkable.
