Whole‐brain atrophy assessed by proportional‐ versus registration‐based pipelines from 3TMRIin multiple sclerosis

Abstract: Background and PurposeWhole‐brain atrophy is a standard outcome measure in multiple sclerosis (MS) clinical trials as assessed by various software tools. The effect of processing method on the validity of such data obtained from high‐resolution 3T MRI is not known. We compared two commonly used methods of quantifying whole‐brain atrophy.MethodsThree‐dimensional T1‐weighted and FLAIR images were obtained at 3T in MS (n = 61) and normal control (NC, n = 30) groups. Whole‐brain atrophy was assessed by two automat… Show more

“…Currently, global and regional brain atrophy can be assessed using a wide variety of MRI post-processing algorithms [ 1 8 , 11 , 14 , 16 19 ]. Automated or semi-automated measurement techniques fall mainly into two categories: registration- and segmentation-based [ 20 ]. Registration-based methods measure within-subject change in brain volume between scans on a voxel-by-voxel basis, to identify shifts in brain structure [ 21 ].…”

“…Segmentation techniques using static comparisons of volumetric data between two scans of the same subject, with each scan usually normalized to the subject’s intracranial cavity; such normalization may be residual [atlas-based: e.g. normalized brain parenchymal volume (BPV)] [ 20 , 22 ] or proportional [scaled to the patient’s own intracranial cavity; e.g. brain parenchymal fraction (BPF)] [ 20 , 23 ].…”

“…Second, we observed a higher proportion of BVI scans if analyzed using the segmentation-based ScanView technique that has slightly lower precision than SIENA. 17,20 This finding was expected, given that correlation between brain percent volume changes (related to the previous MRI scans) from both techniques was only moderately strong (r = .50). Moreover, there was only partial overlap between BVI scans identified by both techniques.…”
