Abstract

The paper discussed 3D visualization and analysis of brain tumor based on magnetic resonance images. In this study, the brain tumor was automatically identified by support vector machine (SVM), and then 3D visualization model of brain tumor was obtained by the classic mobile cube algorithm. Furthermore, associated 3D model parameters were extracted based upon the morphologic analysis, thus providing reliable quantization information for the radiofrequency ablation operation of brain tumor.
