In computer vision and image processing, image segmentation remains a relevant research area that contains many partially answered research questions. One of the fields of most significant interest in Digital Image Processing corresponds to segmentation, a process that breaks down an image into its different components that make it up. A technique widely used in the literature is called Region Growing, this technique makes the identification of textures, through the use of characteristic and particular vectors. However, the level of its computational complexity is high. The traditional methods of Region growing are based on the comparison of grey levels of neighbouring pixels, and usually, fail when the region to be segmented contains intensities similar to adjacent regions. However, if a broad tolerance is indicated in its thresholds, the detected limits will exceed the region to identify; on the contrary, if the threshold tolerance decreases too much, the identified region will be less than the desired one. In the analysis of textures, multiple scenes can be seen as the composition of different textures. The visual texture refers to the impression of roughness or smoothness that some surfaces created by the variations of tones or repetition of visual patterns therein. The texture analysis techniques are based on the assignment of one or several parameters indicating the characteristics of the texture present to each region of the image. This paper shows how a parallel algorithm was implemented to solve open problems in the area of image segmentation research. Region growing is an advanced approach to image segmentation in which neighbouring pixels are examined one by one and added to an appropriate region class if no border is detected. This process is iterative for each pixel within the boundary of the region. If adjacent regions are found, a region fusion algorithm is used in which weak edges dissolve, and firm edges remain intact, this requires a lot of processing time on a computer to make parallel implementation possible
