Hippocampal Atrophy Studying in Alzheimer's Disease Diagnosis Using Brain MRI Images
Background and Aim: For effective treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD), it is important to accurately diagnosis of AD and its earlier stage, Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). One of the most important approaches of early detection of AD is to measure atrophy, which uses various kinds of brain scans, such as MRI. The main objective of the current research was to provide a computerized diagnostic...
متن کاملMRI lesion volume heterogeneity in primary progressive MS in relation with axonal damage and brain atrophy.
OBJECTIVES To investigate whether axonal damage in primary progressive (PP) multiple sclerosis (MS), as measured by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (HMRS) imaging and brain atrophy, is a function of T2 weighted brain lesion volume. METHODS 34 PP MS patients were divided into two categories: low (<3 cm(3), n = 18) or high (>or=3 cm(3), n = 16) T2 lesion load (LL). An Index of Brain Atro...
متن کاملQuantification of multiple-sclerosis-related brain atrophy in two heterogeneous MRI datasets using mixed-effects modeling☆
Brain atrophy, measured by MRI, has been proposed as a useful surrogate marker for disease progression in multiple sclerosis (MS). However, it is conventionally assumed that the accurate quantification of brain atrophy is made difficult, if not impossible, by changes in the parameters of the MRI acquisition, which are almost inevitable over the course of a longitudinal study since MRI technolog...
متن کاملMRI derived brain atrophy measures in Multiple Sclerosis
Purpose: To investigate whether MS atrophy can be assessed by SIENA and SIENAX software using other image types from MS research protocols than T1-weighted images without contrast agent, which are not always available. Method: We selected 46 MS patients with identical MRI protocols at two timepoints. We calculated normalized brain volume (NBV) using SIENAX, and percentage brain volume change (P...
متن کاملQuantification of blood-brain-barrier permeability dysregulation and inflammatory activity in MS lesions by dynamic-contrast enhanced MR imaging
Objective: Measurement of blood-brain permeability dysfunction in active and chronic MS lesions with T1-weighted dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI to show variation in inflammatory activity Background: blood-brain-barrier perfusion characterization impaired in MS as some studies have shown recently buta comparison between perfusion parameters in contrast-enhanced and non-enhanced lesions not have ...
