Advanced Brain Tumor Segmentation Using UNet and Multiple Residual Networks

Accurate brain tumors segmentation is essential for precise diagnosis, planning, treatment, and monitoring of the tumor. However, the variations in tumor size, shape, and location, automating this process can be challenging. Segmentation using manual method is both time-taking and can produce inconsistent results. A promising solution to automated brain tumor segmentation is through deep learning approach that use convolutional neural networks. The models that have used U-Net shown considerable promise in enhancing the precision and effectiveness of automated Brain tumor segmentation. Still, there is a scope for improvement in accurate segmentation of brain MRI images. The segmentation of Brain MRI Images greatly helps in earlier diagnosis of Brain tumor effectively. The proposed model using ResNet, ResNext, and Inception as a backbone of U-Net with BraTs 2020 dataset could potentially reduce the workload of radiologists and provide more consistent results across experts. Future research can explore the use of other architectures or hybrid models to enhance brain tumor segmentation performance.
