Automated classification of neurodegenerative parkinsonian syndromes using multimodal magnetic resonance imaging in a clinical setting

2020

ABSTRACTBackgroundSeveral studies have shown that machine learning algorithms using MRI data can accurately discriminate parkinsonian syndromes. Validation under clinical conditions is missing.ObjectivesTo evaluate the accuracy for the categorization of parkinsonian syndromes of a machine learning algorithm trained with a research cohort and tested on an independent clinical replication cohort.Methods361 subjects, including 94 healthy controls, 139 patients with PD, 60 with PSP with Richardson’s syndrome, 41 with MSA of the parkinsonian variant (MSA-P) and 27 with MSA of the cerebellar variant (MSA-P), were recruited. They were divided into a training cohort (n=179) scanned in a research en…
