BrainView: A cloud-based deep learning system for brain image segmentation, tumor detection and visualization

A brain tumor is an abnormal growth in the brain that disrupts its functionality and poses a significant threat to human life by damaging neurons. Early detection and classification of brain tumors are crucial to prevent complications and maintain good health. Recent advancements in deep learning techniques have shown immense potential in image classification and segmentation for tumor identification and classification. In this study, we present a platform, BrainView, for detection, and segmentation of brain tumors from Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) using deep learning. We utilized EfficientNetB7 pre-trained model to design our proposed DeepBrainNet classification model for analyzing brain MRI images to classify its type. We also proposed a EfficinetNetB7 based image segmentation model, called the EffB7-UNet, for tumor localization. Experimental results show significantly high classification (99.96 %) and segmentation (92.734 %) accuracies for our proposed models. Finally, we discuss the contours of a cloud application for BrainView using Flask and Flutter to help researchers and clinicians use our machine learning models online for research purposes.
