Abstract

This paper presents a method for automatic 3D segmentation of brain tumors in MRI using optical scanning holography. Automatic segmentation of tumors from 2D slices (coronal, sagittal and axial) enables efficient 3D reconstruction of the region of interest, eliminating the human errors of manual methods. The method uses enhanced optical scanning holography with a cylindrical lens, scanning line by line, and displays MRI images via a spatial light modulator. The outgoing phase component of the scanned data, collected digitally, reliably indicates the position of the tumor.The tumor position is fed into an active contour model (ACM), which speeds up segmentation of the seeding region. The tumor is then reconstructed in 3D from the segmented regions in each slice, enabling tumor volume to be calculated and cancer progression to be estimated. Experiments carried out on patient MRI datasets show satisfactory results. The proposed approach can be integrated into a computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system, helping doctors to localize the tumor, estimate its volume and provide 3D information to improve treatment techniques such as radiosurgery, stereotactic surgery or chemotherapy administration. In short, this method offers a precise and reliable solution for the segmentation and 3D reconstruction of brain tumors, facilitating diagnosis and treatment.
