Edge detection for brain tumor pattern recognition

Abstract

Brain tumor diagnosis is done by doctors. For detecting brain tumor grading always gives different conclusion between one doctor to another. For helping doctors diagnose brain tumor grading, this research made a software with edge detections method, so it could give edge pattern of brain and brain tumor itself. Edge detection of brain tumor in this research is the first step for brain tumor grading research. This research found the best edge detection method for brain tumor detecting between Robert, Prewitt, and Sobel method. From these three methods, Sobel method is suitable with case of brain tumors detecting. Sobel method had smaller deviation standard value than two others edge detection method.
