Geostatistics

Geostatistical analysis of lesion development in MS

Projects:

• Characterisation of brain MRI lesions in patients with MS using multiple point geostatistics
• Gender differences in the evolution of brain lesion
• Feasibility study: automated vs. manual brain lesion segmentation in MS
• Object based image analysis (OBIA) in MS
