Automated segmentation of multiple sclerosis lesions by model outlier detection.

Automated segmentation of multiple sclerosis lesions by model outlier detection.

This paper presents a fully automated algorithm for segmentation of multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions from multispectral magnetic resonance (MR) images. The method performs intensity-based tissue classification using a stochastic model for normal brain images and simultaneously detects MS lesions as o...
