Abstract
We Implement multiplicative intrinsic component optimization technique to single and multichannel MRI images for segmenting multiple sclerosis lesions. This technique solves the problem of intensity inhomogeneity by estimating and correcting bias field. In segmentation it has more advantages over other MS lesion segmentation techniques in terms of precision. In multichannel segmentation, distinct weights are given for different channels to regulate the effect of each channel output. We use T1-w and FLAIR images in the multichannel segmentation of MS lesions. we provide higher weight to FLAIR images as they regulate in enhancing the segmented lesions. we were able to solve the problem of intensity inhomogeneity through bias field estimation and correction and followed by lesion segmentation. Our technique showed better and promising results when compared to ground truth images.

Automated segmentation of multiple sclerosis lesions by model outlier detection

TL;DR: A fully automated algorithm for segmentation of multiple sclerosis lesions from multispectral magnetic resonance (MR) images that performs intensity-based tissue classification using a stochastic model and simultaneously detects MS lesions as outliers that are not well explained by the model.

Multiplicative intrinsic component optimization (MICO) for MRI bias field estimation and tissue segmentation

TL;DR: The MICO formulation can be naturally extended to 3D/4D tissue segmentation with spatial/sptatiotemporal regularization and the energy in the formulation is convex in each of its variables, which leads to the robustness of the proposed energy minimization algorithm.

Impact of White Matter Changes on Clinical Manifestation of Alzheimer’s Disease A Quantitative Study

TL;DR: The hypothesis that WMHs in AD patients are superimposed phenomena of vascular origin that contribute to specific neurological and neuropsychiatric manifestations but not to global cognitive impairment, which is more closely associated with brain atrophy is supported.
