Efficient Image Processing Based Liver Cancer Detection Method
Keywords:
Image, Region Growing, CT ImageAbstract
Cancer treatment has a great significance due to the prevalent episodes of the diseases, very high death rate and reappearance after treatment. In the large world scale, cancer stands in the fifth position which causes death. Among the various cancers, liver cancer stands in the third position. Liver cancer is generally diagnosed by three different test like blood test, image test and biopsy. To make the different task of detecting the liver cancer simpler, less time consuming, an effective and efficient approach is adopted for the same. In this research an Image processing system for detecting liver cancer is put forward. The proposed detection methodology makes use of MRI and CT. Region growing technique is adopted so as to segment the images in order to capture the region of interest. Later, wavelet transform is considered to compute the threshold values for the region of interest. After processing and measuring it gives the correct result with in the efficient time period.
