Classification of Brain MRI Image of Normal And Convulsion Pediatric By Using Texture Analysis

Abstract This study is an effort to study brain - white matter (WM), gray matter (GM), cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) - in MRI images which shows normal appearance if the patients were normal or had convulsion, through computerized analysis. The main objective of this study was to identify brain tissue as normal and abnormal “convulsion” pediatric using textural analysis. The textural features were extracted from the whole MRI image using a window of 3×3pixel wide, where the first order stati...

Optimization of Radiation Dose for Brain Computerized Tomography

Abstract: This study was conducted to evaluate the effective dose in adults during the examination of the brain computed tomography. The motivations for this study that frequency of the brain CT test is high and the radiation field of brain CT contain sensitive organ like eyes. By mathematical equation after it has been collecting the factors that affect the amount of radiation from producer ray tube in addition to the two factors CT radiation dose index (CTDI) and the dose length product (D...
