AI-Rad Companion Brain MR – Neuroimaging Workflow
In this video Matt Maros MD Msc from the department of Neuroradiology, Medical University introduces you to the AI-Rad Companion Brain MR neuroimaging workflow.
Hello everyone, my name is Amit and I'm the global product manager for air at companion Branemark and today we have with us. Met very happy to have you met. Thank you for having me. Why don't you tell us something about yourself and what your experience has been so far with the error companion bring EMR? Thank you, I'm a neurologist at the Department of Neuroradiology in the university Clinic Manheim, and we used the ERP company in Mr Brain software in our dementia protocols to evaluate patients. So let's take a look at the current imaging workflow at our institution. After a patient receives an MRI, an expert takes a look at the images in all segments sequences. And uses their experience to provide few visual empirical scores that are scored on a granular scale from zero to three, meaning minor or severe changes. The problem, however, with these empirical scores that they show a huge variability and not only between readers but also between multiple time points. So an additional problem is, and additional pitfall if the technical assistant. We're doing the reconstruction, maybe incorrectly angulatus the image. On the uer side of this. T1V TMP rage image. We can see a correct angulation and see that the hydrochemical volume of the 79 year old patient is actually normal for his age. Receiving an MTA score of two. However, if the angulation is incorrect, angulated, according to the brainstem, we receive a pathological score of MTT score 3. So what, what the future holds and what we are expecting from the future? How should we modify our imaging workflow? The image on the right side? Shows the results of the AI Red companion Mr Brain software tool that we use at our institution currently. O, let's take a look at this 79 year old male patient again. He had a minor cognitive impairment and accordingly he received the Mini mental score of 25 out of three and he additionally had cardiovascular risk factors like arterial hypertonia or Type 2 diabetes and hypercholesterolemia. If you take a look at the left side image that's at 2 flare image, we can see that he has white matter hyperintensities in his pawns in his brain stem that also called. Strategically lesions and if you take a look at this whole brain image, now you can see that he has an extensive confluent bites material. Lesions are eventually and also in the deep white matter, so accordingly, this patient received the physical score of three, which suggests microvascular disease and vascular dementia. However, if we evaluate the whole brain using brain morphometry and Mr brain tool, we can see that this patient also has severe temporal atrophy on the left side. While we can approve and confirm. That the initial slight angulation with the Metascore 2 of the hyper combos was correct was provided on the right image. O we not only have other patients, but also younger patients with suspect in neuroinflammatory diseases by this 19 year old female patient she presented to the ER department with the vision, loss and loss of color and hyperesthesia in her right eye. If you take a look at her two space image on the left side, we can see multiple lation Supra and infratentorial as the wide area show and two further. To pretend to relations and has contrast agent suggesting activity and additionally also the optic nerve on the right side. Responsible for visual symptoms and according to the McDonald criteria, this patient had chronic central nervous system, inflammatory disease and qualified for the diagnosis. Multiple sclerosis. So taking together from an AI enhanced new imaging workflow, we want precision medicine and trustable high quality results that we can use. For an improved classification and diagnosis of the patients and also additionally for predictive modeling to provide the best possible care and theoretic approaches.
