MRI Texture Analysis in Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complicated disease characterized by heterogeneous pathology that varies across individuals. Accurate identification and quantification of pathological changes may facilitate a better understanding of disease pathogenesis and progression and help identify novel therapies for MS patients. Texture analysis evaluates interpixel relationships that generate characteristi...
متن کاملPrediction of persistent and transient T1 ‘black holes’ in multiple sclerosis using MRI texture analysis
Introduction New contrast-enhancing lesions (CELs) in multiple sclerosis (MS) are frequently accompanied by hypointensity on T1-weighted MRI, so called acute T1 black holes (BHs). An acute T1 BH either persists as a permanent BH (persistent BH, trueBH) or evolves over time into an isointense lesion (transient BH, tranBH). While a trueBH is thought to represent irreversible tissue destruction, t...
متن کاملDiffusion MRI in multiple sclerosis.
Diffusion imaging is a quantitative, MR-based technique potentially useful for the study of multiple sclerosis (MS), due to its increased pathologic specificity over conventional MRI and its ability to assess in vivo the presence of tissue damage occurring outside T2-visible lesions, i.e., in the so-called normal-appearing white and gray matter. The present review aims at critically summarizing...
متن کاملTime-series analysis of MRI intensity patterns in multiple sclerosis.
In progressive neurological disorders, such as multiple sclerosis (MS), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) follow-up is used to monitor disease activity and progression and to understand the underlying pathogenic mechanisms. This article presents image postprocessing methods and validation for integrating multiple serial MRI scans into a spatiotemporal volume for direct quantitative evaluation of...
متن کاملMRI texture correlates of pathological findings in post-mortem multiple sclerosis brain
Introduction Texture analysis has the potential to detect subtle alterations in image signal that are invisible on conventional MRI. Measures of texture are hypothesized to represent unique signatures of the tissue that generates the signal. The polar Stockwell transform (PST) is a spatial-frequency based texture analysis technique that combines features of Fourier and wavelet transforms. The P...
