Abstract
Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment depend on the detection of brain tumors. This study develops a deep learning-based AI-based brain tumor detection system for MRI image diagnosis. This system improves the quality of response from medical professionals by using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to accurately identify and categorize various brain tumors. Modern image processing techniques are integrated into this device for segmentation and classification, guaranteeing a high level of accuracy and dependability. This system speeds up treatment decision-making, lowers the possibility of human error, and improves diagnosis by automatically identifying brain tumors. Future studies that are pertinent to enhancing clinical focus are taken into consideration by these perceptions of how deep learning has been altered medically in relation to medical images.
Keywords: Convolutional Neural Networks, Deep Learning, MRI Analysis, Brain Tumour Detection, AI in Healthcare, and Medical Imaging.
INTRODUCTION
Brain tumors are a global health concern. In order to start treatment and enhance patients' overall prognosis, diagnosis entails prompt detection and suitable classification. Conventional diagnostic methods depend on subjective and time-consuming human interpretation of MRI images. Computerized tumor detection systems delivered through medical imaging have been developed as a result of recent developments in deep learning and artificial intelligence. In order to improve the accuracy of brain tumor detection, this study offers a Brain Tumor Detection System that makes use of deep learning techniques, specifically Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). An efficient solution is provided for medical practitioners by utilizing AI-driven image processing, segmentation, and classification. This study demonstrates how deep learning can impact clinical data in practice and enhance diagnostic processes in healthcare.
