Fast CSF MRI for brain segmentation; Cross-validation by comparison with 3D T1-based brain segmentation methods

Abstract

Both CSF MRI sequences have a precision comparable to, and a very good correlation with established 3D T1-based automated segmentations methods for the segmentation of BPV and ICV. However, the short imaging time of the fast CSF MRI sequence is superior to the 3D T1 sequence on which segmentation with established methods is performed.
