Are there any method for detection a tumor using Matlab?

Are there any method for detection a tumor using Matlab? Such as breast cancer, brain tumor, lung tumor.. etc please support me by any materials related with this subject.

There are no native commands to do that in one line. There are filters made by doctors that should help to enhance images, working with the levels of grey that are used in this kind of images.

I worked with a radiologist once: i think its the sharp eye of the radiologist the one who can detect those things in an image.

This is an image/dataset specific question. If you want assistance, I'd suggest uploading a sample of the kind of images you have along with approaches you have already tried and/or how far you've reached with your efforts.

There are no high level functions to do that, though you can build an algorithm with lower level functions in the Image Processing Toolbox. Also see algorithms that others have used here: http://www.visionbib.com/bibliography/contentsmedical.html#Medical%20Applications,%20CAT,%20MRI,%20Ultrasound,%20Heart%20Models,%20Brain%20Models

The following is a good introductory image processing webinar that uses finding tumors as an example:
