Abstract

Kidney failure is the major threat in medical field. The kidneys dysfunction and disease can be filtered using the parameter Glomerular Filtration Rate(GFR). Finding the affected part is the most critical phenomenon in medical field. This methods gives the exact area detection in kidney so that the diagnosis and treatment is easily carried out. The aim of the project is to find the Glomerular Filtration Rate(GFR) and according to it, the affected part in kidney is found out. It deals with renal failure and it applies the concept of Registration and segmentation and classification .

Keywords

Registration, Segmentation, Classification ,GFR (Glomerular Siltration Rate).
