icobrain ms

icometrix
icobrain ms helps physicians assess (sub)clinical disease activity in patients with multiple sclerosis.

icobrain ms allows for the objective assessment of lesion dissemination in space and time by:
- Quantifying and tracking FLAIR WM hyperintensities and T1 WM hypointensities

icobrain ms provides measures of brain volume changes by:
- Tracking annualized brain volume changes for whole brain and gray matter
- Comparing brain volumes and volume changes to an age-and gender-matched reference population.

Intended Use Statements
Intended use (according to CE) icobrain mr is intended for automatic labeling, visualization and volumetric quantification of segmentable brain structures from a set of MR images. This software is intended to automate the current manual process of identifying, labeling and quantifying the volume of segmentable brain structures identified on MR images. icobrain mr consists of two distinct image processing pipelines: icobrain mr cross and icobrain mr long. icobrain mr cross is intended to provide volumes from images acquired at a single timepoint. icobrain mr long is intended to provide changes in volumes between two images that were acquired on the same scanner, with the same image acquisition protocol and with same contrast at two different timepoints. The results of icobrain mr cross cannot be compared with the results of icobrain mr long.
