Original Abstract

This paper focuses on automatic locating of pathological areas in brain and its extraction. The knowledge of properties of healthy brains are used for locating the approximate position of a athological area. These areas are found as parts of the brain breaking the left-right symmetry. This method works for axial and coronal slices and it was tested on T2-weighted images and FLAIR images in both planes.
