Abstract
A single MRI scan generates a large number of images of various cross sections of the body. This large set of accumulated data makes manual analysis time consuming thus a smart tool for screening is vital. This paper presents a novel classification and segmentation method which has the ability to identify white matter in MRI mages. Based on those findings, a supporting web based tool for the MRI image analysis and screening is introduced.
