ABSTRACT

Apply the Image processing techniques to analyse the medical images may assist medical professionals as well as patients, especially in this research apply the algorithms to diagnose the liver tumours from the abdominal CT image. This research proposes a software solution to illustrate the automated liver segmentation and tumour detection using artificial intelligent techniques. Evaluate the results of the liver segmentation and tumour detection, in-cooperation with the radiologists by using the prototype of the proposed system. This research overcomes the challenges in medical image processing. The 100 samples collected from ten patients and received 90% accuracy rate.
