Distinctiveness between the right and left hemisphere of the brain Word Count: 995 Abstract The brain assymetry experiment is to investigate on the distinctiveness of the right and left hemisphere in the brain as each hemisphere has certain specializations. The experiment were carried out by initially asking the 25 participant on whether they were left or right handed and they had to choose the chimeric image which appeared younger to them.

The five major structures of the brain are myelencephalon‚ Metencephalon‚ mesencephalon‚ diencephalon and telencephalon. The myelencephalon carries signals from the brain to the entire parts of the human body and it is also uniquely shaped looking like a little net. The Metencephalon is made up of ascending and descending tracts just like the myelencephalon. It has two major divisions which are pons and the cerebellum. The mesencephalon has two divisions also and they are the tectum and the tegmentum

Abstract In this project our main objective is to detect the tumor and calculate its area based on classifying the images. Death rate among people has been increased due to diseases like brain tumor. The brain tumor that can be identified by using image processing. The proposed system enables automatic detection of brain tumor through MRI. So our main objective is to study‚ analyze and enhance MRI Image from the existing algothrim. Certain traditional approach requires manually extracting the location
