Abstract

In the three-dimensional (3D) construction of brain tumour using several slides of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has always been a keen interest for diagnosis and for research purpose. In this paper we propose a new approach for three-dimensional construction and its volume calculation from a series of two dimensional (2D) MRI images. Each of the abnormality detected MRI image are successively pushed into a stack to construct a 3-dimensional cube inside which it contains the 3-dimentional constructed brain abnormality. The volume of abnormality is calculated from area of each MRI slides with their inter slice distance. This computer aided diagnosis (CAD) system tool helps the neurosurgeon to take decision during their surgical planning.
