Project Description
This project aims to build a sophisticated deep-learning model using Mask R-CNN for brain tumor detection and segmentation. The model is provided with fine-tuning on a dedicated dataset with brain scans and tumor annotations within it, which allows it to properly detect and segment tumor-associated regions. The application of state-of-the-art computer vision techniques in the model results in fine segmentation masks and bounding boxes of the tumor regions in medical images. All these serve to automate the tumor detection process, create less manual effort, and improve early-stage diagnosis by diagnostic capabilities. The project addresses the urgent needs of the healthcare professionals for an efficient tool in reliable and analyzing medical images for assistance in clinical decisions.
