Machine Learning Approach for Detecting Liver Tumours in CT images using the Gray Level Co-Occurrence Metrix

Project Code :TMMAAI259

Objective

This project aims to address critical healthcare challenges by leveraging machine learning techniques, specifically the Gray Level Co-Occurrence Matrix (GLCM), to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of liver tumour diagnosis

Abstract

Over 2.4% of deaths in India each year are caused by liver diseases. Due to its mild early signs, liver disease is also challenging to diagnose. Frequently, the signs only become obvious when it is too late. Even more challenging than segmenting the liver is segmenting the tumor from the liver. Imaging procedures like computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and ultrasound are utilized to separate the liver and liver tumor once a sample of liver tissue has been removed. This research suggests a machine learning method from CT images-based automatic assistance system for stage categorization. Then, the features are extracted from the CT images using the Gray-Level Co-Occurrence Matrix (GLCM) method. Finally, it is suggested that the computed tomography (CT) pictures of livers containing tumors be categorized using a Random Forest technique. Using the described method, liver tumor images are classified as benign or malignant. Using the described method, liver tumor images are classified as benign or malignant. These modifications improve the system's ability to recognize the tumor from the CT pictures.
