Convolutional neural network for discriminating between Multiple System Atrophy and Healthy Control, comparing MRI modalities and highlighting the disease signature
Objective: To develop a neural network architecture based on multimodal MRI brain imaging to discriminate between multiple system atrophy (MSA) and healthy controls (HC), and…Topographical subtypes of multiple system atrophy: MRI and PET studies
Objective: To investigate the MSA subtypes based on the topography of MSA lesions, employing MRI, PET with [18F]FP-CIT and [18F]FDG PET. Background: Based on the…Multiple System Atrophy: phenotypic spectrum approach coupled with brain FDG PET
Objective: This study attempts to identify different phenotypes of patients with MSA and to describe corresponding brain 18-FDG Positron Emission Tomography (PET) patterns. Background: In…Automated Quantitative MRI Biomarkers in Differentiation of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy and Multiple System Atrophy from Parkinson Disease
Objective: To explore the relative merits of automated MRI-based volumetric measures over visual assessment in the differential diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD), parkinsonian variant of…Insular atrophy as a marker of depression in Multiple System Atrophy: A voxel-based morphometry study
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the structural correlates of depressive symptoms in MSA patients. Background: Depression is highly prevalent among patients…Probable MSA presenting initially with urinary retention
Objective: We describe 6 cases of probable MSA presenting with urinary retention/incomplete bladder emptying. Background: MSA is a progressive neurodegenerative adult-onset disease whose clinical features…Spatial correlation and segregation of multimodal MRI abnormalities in multiple system atrophy
Objective: This study aimed to quantify spatial patterns of multimodal MRI abnormalities in basal ganglia (BG) and brainstem-cerebellar (Stem-CB) regions and define structural MRI findings…Mineralization pattern of the deep gray matter by susceptibility-weighted magnetic resonance imaging to differentiate Parkinsonian disorders
Objective: To study mineralization pattern of the deep gray matter by susceptibility-weighted (SWI) magnetic resonance imaging to differentiate Parkinson’s disease and atypical parkinsonian disorders like…Structural brain changes in patients with Multi System Atrophy: A VBM and DTI based study.
Objective: To evaluate the grey matter (GM) and white matter (WM) changes in patients with Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) using MRI. Background: MSA is a…Putaminal Diffusion Imaging for the Differential Diagnosis of the Parkinsonian Variant of Multiple System Atrophy from Parkinson’s Disease: Impact of Segmentation Accuracy
Objective: To evaluate different approaches of segmentation of the putamen in order to discriminate PD from MSA-P based on putaminal diffusion imaging. Background: Differences in prognosis…
