Hyperspectral imaging benchmark based on machine learning for intraoperative brain tumour detection.

ABSTRACT: Brain surgery is one of the most common and effective treatments for brain tumour. However, neurosurgeons face the challenge of determining the boundaries of the tumour to achieve maximum resection, while avoiding damage to normal tissue that may cause neurological sequelae to patients. Hyperspectral (HS) imaging (HSI) has shown remarkable results as a diagnostic tool for tumour detection in different medical applications. In this work, we demonstrate, with a robust k-fold cross-validation approach, that HSI combined with the proposed processing framework is a promising intraoperative tool for in-vivo identification and delineation of brain tumours, including both primary (high-grade and low-grade) and secondary tumours. Analysis of the in-vivo brain database, consisting of 61 HS images fr
