Fig. 2

The three algorithms were applied on a typical patient from our clinical dataset. a FLAIR image sequence, b segmented ground truth of edema region using ITK snap tool, c segmented ground truth of necrotic region using ITK snap tool, d segmented edema region using deepmedic algorithm, e segmented necrotic region using deepmedic algorithm, f segmented edema region using FCM, g segmented necrotic region using FCM, h In the image we tried to use the half brain symmetrical property to segment the brain tumor region. Since, the brain tumor is spread into both the hemispheres our assumption in the development of region growing algorithm is violated. So, region growing algorithm fails to segment the tumor in such type of images
