Segmentation of Tumor and Edema Along With Healthy Tissues of Brain Using Wavelets and Neural Networks

Robust brain magnetic resonance (MR) segmentation algorithms are critical to analyze tissues and diagnose tumor and edema in a quantitative way. In this study, we present a new tissue segmentation algorithm that segments brain MR images into tumor, edema, white matter (WM), gray matter (GM), and cer...
