Liver Tumour Detection for Ct Images

Abstract

A cancer is an abnormal growth of cells typically derived from a single abnormal cell. Detection of liver tumour in early stage is important for the prevention of liver tumour. Many techniques have been developed for the detection of liver tumour from CT images. Treatment of any cancer mainly depends on tumour size and grading. Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most common type of liver cancer. Diagnosis involves CT scan of abdomen provides accurate results. Tumour segmentation in liver CT images is a challenging task. This paper deals with the detection of liver tumour from CT images. Implementation of FCM technique and some default tools help to detect the shape of tumour. Finally the tumour part is extracted from CT images and its exact position and shape is determined to calculate the abnormality area
