Volumetric analysis of MR images identifies effects of Parkinson's
MRI volumetric analysis based on a deep-learning segmentation algorithm helps assess intracranial and white-matter volumes in Parkinson's disease patients, according to research presented November 26 at the recent RSNA meeting.
Parkinson's disease causes structural changes in subcortical brain volumes, and it's important to track these, noted a team led by Nikhil Gupta, MD, of Tirath Ram Shah Hospital in Delhi, India. Gupta's group assessed the ability of an MRI technique -- volumetric analysis based on a deep-learning segmentation -- to visualize volumetric abnormalities in Parkinson's patients compared to healthy contr...
