Abstract
Medical image processing technology is evolving and have its roots in the past where the bony tissues and the bones can be easily viewed through many diagnostic equipment like computed tomography. Computed tomography also known as CT scan is an imaging technique that helps to get 3D-structure of any part of the body through multiple cross-sectional areas and help detect any abnormality. CT scan being non-invasive and simplest diagnostic method can help to detect abnormal tissue growth mainly which is of the cancerous cells in the brain. This abnormal tissue growth in the brain which can cease normal functions of the brain over a long period of time results to having brain tumour. Studying the tumour when detected is very tedious and becomes challenging and hence we have designed various algorithms in MATLAB that can make this job a bit easier and can help detect the level of threat that the patient is at and what kind of treatment and medications should one undergo.
