Abstract

OBJECTIVES: In Multiple Sclerosis (MS) cerebral MRI is essential for disease and treatment monitoring. For this purpose, software solutions are available to support the radiologist with image interpretation and reporting of follow up imaging. Aim of this study was to evaluate an AI based software for longitudinal lesion detection with clinical data and to determine the influence of different MRI machines in such setting.
