INTRODUCTION
Based on statistics, tumors are the second cause of cancerrelated deaths in children (both males and females) who are
under the age of 20 and in males whose age from 20 to 39.
These facts increases the importance of the researches on the
tumor detection and this will present the opportunity for
doctors to help and save lives by detecting the disease
earlier, and perform necessary actions. Varieties of image
processing techniques are available to be applied on various
imaging modalities for tumor detection that will detect
certain features of the tumors such as the shape, border,
calcification and texture. These features will make the
detection processes more accurate and easier as there are
some standard characteristics of each feature for a specific
tumor.
MATLAB is an important tool which can be as beneficial as
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in the field of bio
medical sciences. Image Processing Toolbox provides a
comprehensive set of reference-standard algorithms,
functions, and apps for image processing, analysis,
visualization, and algorithm development. Image analysis,
image segmentation, image enhancement, noise reduction,
geometric transformations, and image registration are the

IV. RESULTS
Preprocessing stage results are as shown
1) When the input image is loaded into the test
process, the process classifies the image into two
types: the brain image with tumor and the brain
image without tumor. The images are stored in 2
D matrix where pixels represent each element of
the matrix. The raw image is converted into a
grayscale image and then stored in MATLAB.
The size of image matters as it is necessary to
reduce the processing time. Fig- 3 depicts the
