Computerized or Automatic detection of tumors in medical images is motivated by the necessity of high accuracy when dealing with a human life. The computer assistance is also demanded in medical institutions because it could improve the results of disease identification and negative cases should be very low. So, the Processing of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) images is one of the techniques to diagnose the brain tumor. This paper describes the strategy to detect and extract brain tumor from patient’s MRI scanned images. In this the Steps includes are pre-processing, segmentation, morphological operation, watershed segmentation and calculation of the tumor area and determination of the tumor location and this Application is Developed using Matrix Laboratory (MATLAB)
