An Analysis of Ewing's Sarcoma Detection Using Image Processing Techniques

A Ewing's sarcomas is a kind of cancer disease which develops from soft tissues like bone, fat, muscle, nerves, fibrous tissues, blood vessels and deep skin tissues. This paper presents the overall information about the Ewing's Sarcoma and overview of image processing techniques. Ewing's Sarcoma is a terrific form of cancer which affects the adjoining body areas such as bones and other supporting soft tissue of the body. It is a very rare cancer. About 1% among adult and 15% among the children is affected in this Ewing's sarcoma. For detection mainly biopsy, CT scan or MRI is done and to pursue the treatment surgery, chemotherapy, radiation is given which may increase the survival rate of the patients. The image processing techniques are applied broadly in medical images for refining prior detection and treatment stages in Ewing's Sarcoma cancer. This paper presents an analysis of ewing's sarcoma and literature survey on detection of ewing's sarcoma by previous researchers.
