Abstract

3D image visualization gives the detailed information of MR images. In this paper, 2D images of different patients have been taken and these are preprocessed, segmented and post-processed. The preprocessing steps include thresholding and skull stripping. Watershed algorithm is applied for segmentation, stacking is performed to arrange different slices of tumor in shape, and interpolation is done to get smoothness between different slices of tumor and lastly rendering (Phong shading applied) which gives realness to the shape of tumor. The developed strategy has been tested on MATLAB 2013a software platform. The dataset of different patients had been taken having no tumor, less tumor, and high tumor.
