Abstract
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has commonly been used to detect and diagnose brain disease and monitor treatment as non-invasive imaging technology. MRI produces three-dimensional images that help neurologists to identify anomalies from brain images precisely. However, this is a time-consuming and labor-intensive process. The improvement in machine learning and efficient computation provides a computer-aid solution to analyze MRI images and identify the abnormality quickly and accurately. Image segmentation has become a hot and research-oriented area in the medical image analysis community. The computer-aid system for brain abnormalities identification provides the possibility for quickly classifying the disease for early treatment. This article presents a review of the research papers (from 1998 to 2020) on brain tumors segmentation from MRI images. We examined the core segmentation algorithms of each research paper in detail. This article provides readers with a complete overview of the topic and new dimensions of how numerous machine learning and image segmentation approaches are applied to identify brain tumors. By comparing the state-of-the-art and new cutting-edge methods, the deep learning methods are more effective for the segmentation of the tumor from MRI images of the brain.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Reviews in Biomedical Engineering (RBME) serves as a platform to review the state-of-the-art and trends in the interdisciplinary field of biomedical engineering, which encompasses engineering, life sciences, and medicine. The journal aims to consolidate research and reviews for members of all IEEE societies interested in biomedical engineering. Recognizing the demand for comprehensive reviews among authors of various IEEE journals, RBME addresses this need by receiving, reviewing, and publishing scholarly works under one umbrella. It covers a broad spectrum, from historical to modern developments in biomedical engineering and the integration of technologies from various IEEE societies into the life sciences and medicine.
