Abstract—The primary purpose of this paper is to elaborate
upon and to take a step ahead on the research done in the field
of Image Processing with a focus on Early Tumor Detection
through the use of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and
Image Processing Tool Box of MATLAB. The technique which
the author proposed is Morphological Reconstruction Based
Segmentation, used to segment the solid cum cystic tumor of
brain and is suggested after testing and observing various
available methods and algorithms. The proposed method shows
more precision amongst others and the processing time is also
fast.
Index Terms—Image processin, medical diagnosis, object
detection, tumors.
