Brain Tumor Detection Using Snake Algorithm and Fuzzy C-Mean

Abstract

In this research, two methods have been suggested for the detection of the brain tumor . (which is defined as the abnormal growth of cells), The first method is used the snake algorithm and the second Fuzzy C-mean . Initial image hase been processed that converts the image to gray then a Median filtering method is used to remove noise and other false features while maintaining the quality of public image. The methods are applied on a number of brain image with different angles. The results have to been presented of both methods and compared. The result show that snake method with a high speed in detecting the tumor, the matlab language has been used for the suggestions methods.
