Lambert Academic Publishing Company based in Germany published a research book titled ‘An Automated MRI Segmentation for Brains with Tumors and MS Lesions’ authored by a senior professor Dr.M.Y.Bhanumurthy of the department of ECE.
This book would be available in all leading book stores across the world with ISBN 978-620-2-01973-6. Customers can also purchase this book online from amazon store at http://a.co/bINMGuM
This book would help researchers working in the field of Bio-Medical Image Processing to understand and formulate complex classification and segmentation tasks of brain MR images. The brain tissue segmentation from the magnetic resonance (MR) images is having considerable importance in the medical research field and has been useful in many applications such as detection of tumors, measuring tumor volume and its response to therapy, detection of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) lesions in young adults, Alzheimer’s and dementia. Brain tissue is a complex structure and hence proper diagnosis of many brain disorders greatly depend upon accurate classification and segmentation of brain tissues which is still a challenging and demanding task for researchers working in this field. This book emphasizes on devising novel strategies and methodologies for an automated brain MR image segmentation scheme with an aim to address the segmentation problems while improving the segmentation accuracy.
Dr.M.Y.Bhanumurthy said that improved segmentation accuracies of brain MR images would help radiologists to precisely determine the location of brain tumors and lesions in the patients suffering from multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s and dementia. It would help doctors to accurately diagnose these diseases within a short period of time and provide better treatment.
Chairman Vasireddy Vidyasagar said that VVIT encourages their faculty to work on cutting-edge research in diverse fields of engineering and science for the benefit of the society. DST projects worth crores of rupees were being implemented by their faculty currently within the campus. The management, principal, staff and students congratulated Dr.M.Y.Bhanumurthy for publishing a valuable research book.
