Abstract

This paper presents the different segmentation and detection techniques for liver tumor. Liver Cancer is one of the most difficult cancer to heal and the number of deaths that it causes generally increasing. The signs and the symptoms of the liver cancer are not known, till the cancer is in its last stage. So, early detection is the main problem. Computed Tomography (CT) is highly accurate for liver cancer diagnosis. Manual identification of hepatic liver tumor done by trained physicians is a time-consuming task and can be subjective depending on the skill, expertise and experience of the physician. The sophisticated hybrid systems are proposed in this paper which is capable to segment liver tumor from a liver CT image and detect liver tumor automatically.
