Comparison of MRI Criteria for the Diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis: Role of Cortical Lesions (S45.003)
Paolo Preziosa,Maria A. Rocca,Sarlota Mesaros,Massimiliano Copetti,Alex Rovira,Jaume Sastre Garriga,Jelena Drulovic,Amgad Droby,Frauke Zipp,Massimiliano Calabrese,Massimo Filippi +10 more
TL;DR: Adding the evaluation of cortical lesions improves specificity of the diagnostic criteria preserving sensitivity and accuracy in a multicentric cohort of clinically isolated syndrome patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved Assessment of Longitudinal Spinal Cord Atrophy in Multiple Sclerosis Using a Registration-Based Approach: Relevance for Clinical Studies.
Paola Valsasina,Mark A. Horsfield,Alessandro Meani,Claudio Gobbi,Antonio Gallo,Maria A. Rocca,Massimo Filippi +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared a registration-based method with two existing methods (active surface [AS] and propagation segmentation [PropSeg]) to measure cord atrophy changes over time in MS.
Journal Article

Simeoni,Laura Cacciaguerra,Aurora Zanghì,Angelo Quattrini,Riccardo Fesce,Paola Panina-Bordignon,Francesca Giannese,D. Cittaro,Tanja Kuhlmann,Patrizia D'Adamo,Maria A. Rocca,Stefano Taverna,Gianvito Martino +21 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors provide evidence that SVZ-eNPCs tune structural, electrophysiological, and behavioural aspects of striatal function via secretion of insulin-like growth factor binding protein-like 1 (IGFBPL1).
Book ChapterDOI
A Semi-automatic Method for Segmentation of Multiple Sclerosis Lesions on Dual-Echo Magnetic Resonance Images
TL;DR: High similarity between the segmentation performed with this method and that performed manually by an expert operator, as well as a low misclassification of lesions are revealed, and the time required for segmentation is drastically reduced.
