Manual segmentation of brain tumor is not only a tedious task that may bring human mistakes. An automatic segmentation gives results faster, and it extends the survival rate with an earlier treatment plan. So, an automatic brain tumor segmentation model, modified inception module based U-Net (IMU-Net) proposed. It takes Magnetic resonance (MR) images from the BRATS 2017 training dataset with four modalities (FLAIR, T1, T1ce, and T2). The concatenation of two series 3×3 kernels, one 5×5, and one 1×1 convolution kernels are utilized to extract the whole tumor (WT), core tumor (CT), and enhance tumor (ET). The modified inception module (IM) collects all the relevant features and provides better segmentation results. The proposed deep learning model contains 40 convolution layers and utilizes intensity normalization and data augmentation operation for further improvement. It achieved the mean dice similarity coefficient (DSC) of 0.90, 0.77, 0.74, and the mean Intersection over Union (IOU) of 0.79, 0.70, 0.70 for WT, CT, and ET during the evaluation.
