Fully automated segmentation of the cervical cord from T1-weighted MRI using PropSeg: Application to multiple sclerosis

Spinal cord (SC) atrophy, i.e. a reduction in the SC cross-sectional area (CSA) over time, can be measured by means of image segmentation using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, segmentation methods have been limited by factors relating to reproducibility or sensitivity to change. The purpo...
