Abstract: In computer aided diagnosis of liver tumor detection, tumor segmentation from the CT image is an important step. The majority of methods are not able to give an integrated structure for finding fast and effective tumor segmentation. Hence segmentation of tumor is most difficult task in diagnosing. In this paper, CT abdominal image is segmented using Superpixel-based fast Fuzzy C Means clustering algorithm to decrease the time needed for computation and eradicate the manual interface. In this algorithm, a superpixel image with perfect contour can be obtain using a Multiscale morphological gradient reconstruction operation. Superpixel is pre-segmentation algorithm and is employed to obtain segmentation accuracy. FCM with modified object is used to obtain the color segmentation. This method is examined on 20 CT images gathered from liveratlas database, results shows that this approach is fast and accurate compared to most of segmentation algorithms. Statistical parameters which include accuracy, precision, sensitivity, specificity, dice, rfn and rfp are calculated for segmented image. The results shows that this algorithm gives high accuracy of 99.58% and improved rfn value of 8.34% compared with methods discussed in the literature.
