Automated volumetric assessment with artificial neural networks might enable a more accurate assessment of disease burden in patients with multiple sclerosis

Patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) regularly undergo MRI for assessment of disease burden. However, interpretation may be time consuming and prone to intra- and interobserver variability. Here, we evaluate the potential of artificial neural networks (ANN) for automated volumetric assessment of MS...

Description
Summary:Patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) regularly undergo MRI for assessment of disease burden. However, interpretation may be time consuming and prone to intra- and interobserver variability. Here, we evaluate the potential of artificial neural networks (ANN) for automated volumetric assessment of MS disease burden and activity on MRI.
