 Research Plan

             Over the last few decades, the rapid development of noninvasive brain imaging technologies has opened new horizons in analysing and studying the brain anatomy and function. Enormous progress in accessing brain injury and exploring brain anatomy has been made using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The advances in brain MR imaging have also provided large amount of data with an increasingly high level of quality. The analysis of these large and complex MRI datasets has become a tedious and complex task for clinicians, who have to manually extract important information. This manual analysis is often time-consuming and prone to errors due to various inter- or intraoperator variability studies. These difficulties in brain-MRI data analysis required inventions in computerized methods to improve disease diagnosis and testing. Nowadays, computerized methods for MR image segmentation, registration and visualization have been extensively used to assist doctors in qualitative diagnosis.

            Image segmentation is one of the most important tasks in medical image analysis and is often the first and the most critical step in many clinical applications. In brain MRI analysis, image segmentation is commonly used for measuring and visualizing the brain's anatomical structures, for analyzing brain changes, for delineating pathological regions, and for surgical planning and image-guided interventions. Given the improvements achieved over the past years by imaging tools, the manual segmentation has become an intensive and time-consuming task. Automated brain tumor or edema segmentation from MR modalities remains a challenging, computationally intensive task. I am planning for the development of an automated and fast tumor or edema segmentation method using symmetry technique. Its approach is based on an unsupervised change detection method that searches for the most dissimilar region (axis-parallel bounding boxes) between the left and the right halves of a brain in an axial view MR slice. The novelty of this segmentation technique lies in a proposed score function that locates the bounding boxes.
