Abstract

Brain tumors are one of the most life-threatening neurological disorders, requiring early and accurate diagnosis for effective treatment planning. Computed tomography (CT) remains one of the most reliable and widely accessible imaging modalities for brain screening, especially in emergency and resource-limited healthcare settings. However, manual interpretation of CT images is highly subjective and prone to variability among radiologists, leading to delays in diagnosis and potential misclassification of tumor regions. This paper presents a highly scalable, intelligent, and explainable AI-based CT scan analyzer (Web/App) that leverages hybrid deep learning and modern web technologies for automated tumor detection and visualization. The proposed system combines three major deep learning paradigms—Convolutional neural networks (CNN) for spatial feature extraction, genetic algorithm (GA) for feature selection and optimization, and bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) for temporal and contextual classification. The model is deployed via a ReactJS frontend and a Flask-TensorFlow backend, creating a responsive web application capable of real-time inference, visualization through Grad-CAM heatmaps, and secure data handling via MongoDB. This study consolidates literature between 2022 and 2025 and discusses the methodology, architecture, explainability, deployment, and clinical implications of integrating hybrid AI systems in radiological diagnostics.
