Volumetric Estimation of the Damaged Area in the Human Brain from 2D MR Image

摘要

In this article, we present a volumetric estimate of the mutilated part in the human brain from a typical 2D MR image that is directly rendered from the scanner, which is first of its kind in the field of medical imaging. The proposed concept necessitates segmentation of the MR image for the identification of dimensions in the damaged region. Once the dimensions are identified from the resultant segmented image, the volume of the damaged region is evaluated through the Gauss Derivation theorem. The pixel to the distance scaling, which is fed as an input for the Gauss Derivation is from an earlier medical diagnosis from another researcher. The proposed algorithm was experimented with real-time images and the obtained results were examined against the real-time scenarios and were observed to exhibit better accuracy.
