چکیده

We present multivariate statistics to detect intensity changes in longitudinal, multimodal, three-dimensional MRI data from patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Working on a voxel-by-voxel basis, and considering that there is at most one such change-point in the time series of MR images, two complementary statistics are given, which aim at detecting disease activity. We show how to derive these statistics in a Neyman-Pearson framework, by computing ratios of data likelihood under null and alternative hypotheses. Preliminary results show that it is possible to detect both lesion activity and brain atrophy in this framework.

Optimized co-registration method of Spinal cord MR Neuroimaging data analysis and application for generating multi-parameter maps

Introduction: The purpose of multimodal and co-registration In MR Neuroimaging is to fuse two or more sets images (T1, T2, fMRI, DTI, pMRI, …) for combining the different information into a composite correlated data set in order to visualization, re-alignment and generating transform to functional Matrix. Multimodal registration and motion correction in spinal cord MR Neuroimag...

Automatic change detection in multimodal serial MRI: application to multiple sclerosis lesion evolution.

The automatic analysis of subtle changes between MRI scans is an important tool for assessing disease evolution over time. Manual labeling of evolutions in 3D data sets is tedious and error prone. Automatic change detection, however, remains a challenging image processing problem. A variety of MRI artifacts introduce a wide range of unrepresentative changes between images, making standard chang...

Privacy Preserving Multimodal Biometrics in Online Passport Recognition

The biometric recognition systems rely on a single biometric for authentication for a particular user. Unfortunately these systems having some inevitable problems such as Noisy data, spoof attack, on-universality etc and hence it is not used in online passport registration system. In order to rectify the noise in the image, a novel joint sparsity based feature level fusion algorithm is used for...

Multiple sclerosis of the spinal cord: diagnosis and follow-up with contrast-enhanced MR and correlation with clinical activity.

PURPOSE Although MR findings in multiple sclerosis (MS) are well known, the relationship between MR-detected lesions and clinical activity has not been studied in the spinal cord. The purpose of this study was to determine whether serial MR imaging provides evidence of disease activity unsuspected on clinical examination and to determine whether it is useful in monitoring patients with MS prima...
