A novel segmentation method based on wavelet transform is presented for gray matter, white matter and cerebrospinal fluid in thin-sliced single-channel brain magnetic resonance (MR) scans. On the basis of the local image model, multicontext wavelet-based thresholding segmentation (MCWT) is proposed

## Abstract ## Purpose To develop and implement a method for improved cerebellar tissue classification on the MRI of brain by automatically isolating the cerebellum prior to segmentation. ## Materials and Methods Dual fast spin echo (FSE) and fluid attenuation inversion recovery (FLAIR) images w
Segmentation of diffusion-weighted echo-planar imaging (DW-EPI) is challenging because of concerns regarding spatial resolution and distortion. Methods commonly used require manual input and often need thresholding measures to segment white matter (WM), gray matter (GM) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)
In this paper, we present a fuzzy Markovian method for brain tissue segmentation from magnetic resonance images. Generally, there are three main brain tissues in a brain dataset: gray matter, white matter, and cerebrospinal fluid. However, due to the limited resolution of the acquisition system, man
## Abstract ## Purpose: To develop and implement an automated and robust technique to extract brain from T2βweighted images. ## Materials and Methods: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed on 75 adult volunteers to acquire dual fast spin echo (FSE) images with fatβsaturation technique o
## Abstract The interpretation of brain metabolite concentrations measured by quantitative proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) is assisted by knowledge of the percentage of gray matter (GM), white matter (WM), and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within each MRSI voxel. Usually, this in
