Application of Tessellation Technique to T1-Weighted Images for Extraction of Brain

Rajani K V, Mrs.Veena Suresh

Abstract: This is a method of extraction of brain from the T1 weighted MR images. This work is a combination of the both stochastic model and geometric model. This method is fast from which the brain will be extracted accurately, without losing any brain parts and without adding any non brain parts. The main parts of brain extraction method are a) Bias correction of the given brain MR image b) Skull stripping using the tessellation process for this using BET algorithm. In BET algorithm there are four steps. A)Initially it  estimates the imge parameters b) Finds the centroid of the brain c) Estimate radius  and form a brain layer d)Finally extract the brain, and generate the iso-surface.
