5. MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING-MRI
An imaging technique based on the measurement
of magnetic field vectors generated after an
excitation with strong magnetic fields and
radiofrequency pulses in the nuclei of hydrogen
atoms present in water molecules of a patient’s
tissue.

9. MRF SEGMENTATION OF BRAIN MRI
Markov Random Field Segmentation.
A fully automatic 3D segmentation of Brain MRI.
Analysis is performed on:
The impact of noise
Inhomogeneity
Smoothing and structure thickness
Segmentation algorithm captures three features:
Nonparametric Distributions of tissues intensities
Neighborhood correlations
Signal inhomogeneities

10. ADAPTIVE SPATIAL FUZZY CLUSTERING
ALGORITHM
The input images may be corrupted by noise and
INU.
The local spatial continuity constraint reduces the
noise effect and the classification ambiguity.
Multiplicative bias field
