Paul Schmidt,Christian Gaser,Milan Arsic,Dorothea Buck,Annette Förschler,Achim Berthele,Muna Hoshi,Rüdiger Ilg,Volker Schmid,Claus Zimmer,Bernhard Hemmer,Mark Mühlau +11 more
TL;DR: The developed and evaluated an algorithm for automated lesion detection requiring a three-dimensional (3D) gradient echo (GRE) T1-weighted and a FLAIR image at 3 Tesla and it is believed that this tool allows fast and reliable segmentation of FLAIR-hyperintense lesions, which might simplify the quantification of lesions in basic research and even clinical trials.
