A New Method for Segmentation of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Lesions on Brain MR Images

Automatic segmentation of multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions in brain MRI has been widely investigated in recent years with the goal of helping MS diagnosis and patient follow-up. In this study we applied gaussian mixture model (GMM) to segment MS lesions in MR images. Usually, GMM is optimized using e...
