Automatic and accurate segmentation of osteosarcoma region in MRI images can assist doctor to prepare a feasible treatment plan, hence resulting in improved cure rate. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the performance of automated and semi-automated algorithms that might be effective in segmenting bone tumor in MRI data, with reasonable accuracy, speed and minimal manual input. The results are very conclusive for efficient performance.
