Description: The purpose of this study was to develop a computerized method for detection of multiple sclerosis
(MS) lesions in brain magnetic resonance (MR) images. We have proposed a new false positive reduction
scheme, which consisted of a rule-based method, a level set method, and a support vector machine. We
applied the proposed method to 49 slices selected 6 studies of three MS cases including 168 MS
lesions. As a result, the sensitivity for detection of MS lesions was 81.5 with 2.9 false positives per slice
based on a leave-one-candidate-out test, and the similarity index between MS regions determined by
the proposed method and neuroradiologists was 0.768 on average
