In the past decade, there has been a remarkable evolution of convolutional neural networks (CNN) for biomedical image processing. These improvements are inculcated in the basic deep learning-based models for computer-aided detection and prognosis of various ailments. But implementation of these CNN based networks is highly dependent on large data in case of supervised learning processes. This is needed to tackle overfitting issues which is a major concern in supervised techniques. Overfitting refers to the phenomenon when a network starts learning specific patterns of the input such that it fits well on the training data but leads to poor generalization abilities on unseen data. The accessibility of enormous quantity of data limits the field of medical domain research. This paper focuses on utility of data augmentation (DA) techniques, which is a well-recognized solution to the problem of limited data. The experiments were performed on the Brain Tumor Segmentation (BraTS) dataset which is available online. The results signify that different DA approaches have upgraded the accuracies for segmenting brain tumor boundaries using CNN based model.

Parkinson’s disease is perhaps the most well-known neurodegenerative disorder that mainly occurs due to the loss of dopamine-producing neurons and consists of motor/non-motor symptoms. The progression of the symptoms is often varying from one person to another to the diversity of the disease. The condition causes a huge burden both on those affected, as well as their families. Accurate diagnosis is critical and challenging but still, no specific diagnostic process is available. The computer-aided diagnosis techniques of signalling and imaging processing are very helpful in the prediction and classification of PD. This review gives a brief description of different methods of classification for early detection and also highlights the most profitable research directions by focusing on continuous monitoring patterns of daily activities, interactions, and routine that may provide the data on status changes, clinical management, and controlling self-correction

Diabetic retinopathy is a globally rising disease and needs to be taken in concern. It is the problem with vision of diabetic patients due to a disease in the retina of diabetic patients.Diabetic patients have high glucose level in the blood.Our major concern is to predict the disease at early stages.The studies focusses on the modern techniques used in image processing digitally.It also puts a stress on patches classification used for the examination and prediction of diabetic retinopathy and judge the accuracy,senstivity of dataset.

This paper aims at presenting a complete picture of advances till now in the field of computer-aided detection of Pulmonary Tuberculosis using Chest X-ray Images. Advances are analyzed in chronological order as they happen and are divided into three phases in which technology shifted into new paradigms. Study concludes that although techniques that use Machine learning based methods for segmentation and classification are prevailing for the moment in terms of flexibility for very particular feature extraction in borderline cases where probabilistic methods can be tweaked according to requirements and accuracy, Deep Convolutional Neural Network based technique will secure higher standings as the computational capability and dataset management improves. Finally, briefly an attempt at using visualization techniques for borderline cases is discussed.

A significant analysis is routine for Brain Tumor patients and it depends on accurate segmentation of Region of Interest. In automatic segmentation, field deep learning algorithms are attaining interest after they have performed very well in various ImageNet competitions. This review focuses on state-of-the-art Deep Learning Algorithms which are applied to Brain Tumor Segmentation. First, we review the methods of brain tumor segmentation, next the different deep learning algorithms and their performance measures like sensitivity, specificity and Dice similarity Coefficient (DSC) are discussed and Finally, we discuss and summarize the current deep learning techniques and identify future scope and trends.
