Tissues segmentation of brain MR Image by utilizing artificial neural network

The anatomical structure of human brain is very complex. For diagnosing the presence of certain possible pathology, some times the surgeons have to navigate through each and every pixel to ascertain its possible association with a specific group of tissues. Due to the volume of MRIs because of i...
