Use of signatures to create probability maps of brain tissues in health and disease – a new diagnostic tool?

Abstract: Segmentation of brain MRI into white matter, gray matter, cerebrospinal fluid, skull, and other categories is an integral part of MRI analysis. To date, most widely used segmentation approaches require the use of population-based spatial segmentation priors, mostly to improve robustness to...
