Abstract

Brain matter extraction from MR images is an essential, but tedious process performed manually by skillful medical professionals. Automation can be a potential solution to this complicated task. However, it is an ambitious task due to the irregular boundaries between the grey and white matter regions. The intensity inhomogeneity in the MR images further adds to the complexity of the problem. In this paper, we propose a high dimensional translation, rotation, and scale-invariant feature, further used by a variational framework to perform the desired segmentation. The proposed model is able to accurately segment out the brain matter. The above argument is supported by extensive experimentation and comparison with the state-of-the-art methods performed on several MRI scans taken from the McGill Brain Web.
