Abstract
Images segmentation aims to divide an image into several segments. They can be selected according to the composition of the region of interest, the types of tissues, and the functional zones [1]. In this paper, we present a new segmentation method, based on the multi-thresholding method and morphological reconstruction for brain tumor separation from Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Firstly, we use a pre-processing to enhance image contrast and quality by intensity adjustment. Secondly, the improved image is segmented using the multi-Otsu method and finally, a morphological reconstruction was performed with the appropriate structuring element parameter on the segmented image to determine the tumor. A comparison with some state-of-the-art algorithms demonstrated the efficiency of the proposed method with regard to accuracy.

Morphological grayscale reconstruction in image analysis: applications and efficient algorithms

TL;DR: An algorithm that is based on the notion of regional maxima and makes use of breadth-first image scannings implemented using a queue of pixels results in a hybrid gray-scale reconstruction algorithm which is an order of magnitude faster than any previously known algorithm.
