Brain Tumors: An Engineering Perspective
With the rapid growth in technical evolution, medical field is growing like anything. For making good sound we need cooperation from both hands. In this manner, now a days medical and engineering technology, both are joined together and developing new innovations in medical field. These innovations are enlightening the life of human by providing proper treatment. Medical field reached a tremendous place in diagnosing tumors after the discovery of CT and MRI. And still researchers are finding new things in the area of medical imaging. Recent bioengineering researchers involved in medical image segmentation algorithms to speed up the physicians diagnostic process. In this paper we are describing the various types of brain tumor and their diagnostic methods in an engineering perspective.
