System for performing fully automatic brain tumor and tumor-aware cortex reconstructions upon receiving multi-modal MRI data (T1, T1c, T2, T2-Flair). The system outputs imaging which delineates distinctions between tumors (including tumor edema, and tumor active core), from white matter and gray matter surfaces. In cases where existing MRI model data is insufficient then the model is trained on-the-fly for tumor segmentation and classification. A tumor-aware cortex segmentation that is adaptive to the presence of the tumor is performed using labels, from which the system reconstructs and visualizes both tumor and cortical surfaces for diagnostic and surgical guidance. The technology has been validated using a publicly-available challenge dataset.
