We present an automated brain tumor segmentation framework to measure the variability associated to the tumor boundary that is observed on multimodal MRI; this is a vital task to accomplish as quantitative and automated tumor measurements and assessment become the standard in neuro-oncology for disease diagnosis, treatment planning, and clinical monitoring.
