Partial volume-aware assessment of multiple sclerosis lesions
White-matter lesion count and volume estimation are key to the diagnosis and monitoring of multiple sclerosis (MS). Automated MS lesion segmentation methods that have been proposed in the past 20 years reach their limits when applied to patients in early disease stages characterized by low lesion load and small lesions. We propose an algorithm to automatically assess MS lesion load (number and ...
متن کاملHypothalamic lesions in multiple sclerosis.
Demyelinating lesions of fiber bundles in and adjacent to the hypothalamus (i.e. the fornix. anterior commissure, internal capsule, and optic system) may be the basis for autonomic and endocrine alterations in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Therefore we investigated the presence and immunological activity of lesions in hypothalamic fiber bundles of 17 MS patients and 14 controls. In the MS g...
متن کاملCortical lesions in multiple sclerosis.
Although previous studies have shown that the lesions of multiple sclerosis may involve the cerebral cortex, there is little published research on the prevalence and distribution of such lesions. Using neuropathological techniques and MRI, a series of studies has been undertaken in order to assess this, in particular to identify their relationship to cortical veins. A serial MRI study showed th...
متن کاملAn Automatic Segmentation of Multiple Sclerosis Lesions
Multiple sclerosis diagnosis and patient follow-up can be helped by an evaluation of the lesion load in MRI sequences. A lot of automatic methods to segment these lesions are available in the literature. The MICCAI workshop Multiple Sclerosis (MS) lesion segmentation Challenge 08 allows to test and compare these algorithms. This paper presents a method designed to detect hyperintense signal are...
متن کاملNeural Network-Based Learning Kernel for Automatic Segmentation of Multiple Sclerosis Lesions on Magnetic Resonance Images
Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a degenerative disease of central nervous system. MS patients have some dead tissues in their brains called MS lesions. MRI is an imaging technique sensitive to soft tissues such as brain that shows MS lesions as hyper-intense or hypo-intense signals. Since manual segmentation of these lesions is a laborious and time consuming task, automatic segmentation ...
