AUTOMATIC IDENTIFICATION OF RING ENHANCING LESION PATTERN IN CASES OF BRAIN INFECTION AND METASTASIS BRAIN TUMOR BASED ON INVARIANT MOMENT FEATURES CLASSIFICATION
Main Article Content
Abstract
Brain infection and metastasis brain tumor in CT Scan examination have similar ring-enhancing lesion patterns. This research aims to develop a program that aids the radiologists to identify these brain disorders. The radiologists often have difficulties and mostly subjective when distinguishing the ring-enhancing lesion whether brain infection or metastatic brain tumor, especially in patients with no previous history of the disease. With these limitations, this research produces a Computer Aided Diagnose (CAD) system in order to assist the radiologists in brain disorders observing from the images of CT scan brain scanning. The CAD system is supported by features extraction method which is generated using the combinations of Hu's invariant moment features. The decision maker uses the backpropagation neural network method to classify the brain disorders based on their invariant moment features that could help the radiologists when identifying the brain abnormalities. The results of brain abnormalities identification including normal, brain infection, and metastasis brain tumor yielded performance with 88.9% accuracy, 86% sensitivity, and 100% specificity.
