Abstract

A wide use of indexing algorithms for bio-medical images is done by the researchers. This paper proposes a novel feature based algorithm for indexing in brain tumor MR images which helps to compare and analyze the extent of disease amongst a database. After the detection of cancer by using various filters and operations, we use features like centroid, length of the parameter, number of connected components and Laplacian of Gaussian for indexing. This enables us to extract similar images in the database as well as to analyze the impact of disease in the unknown sample.
