  • Abstract
    In today´s world, one of the reason in rise of mortality among the people is brain cancer. Brain tumour is the main cause of brain cancer. A tumour can be defined as any mass caused by abnormal or uncontrolled growth of cells. This mass of tumour grows within the skull, due to which normal brain activity is hampered. Which is if not detected in earlier stage, can take away the person´s life. Hence, it is very important to detect the brain tumour as early as possible. For detection of brain tumour, first we have to read the MRI image of brain and then we can apply segmentation on the image. But in the MRI brain image, some confidential information of patient´s is always there. To apply segmentation, this unnecessary information has to be removed, as it can be considered as noise. Here we present an efficient method for removing noise from the MRI image of brain using Region Filling method.
