ABSTRACT

The automatic assessment of paramagnetic rim lesions in multiple sclerosis is important, and a deep learning-based algorithm called RimNet has recently been proposed. This work evaluates the gener­alizability of RimNet and its longitudinal performance on MRI data acquired at different clinical cen­ters. We found that Rim Net’s performance was nearly as good on totally unseen data as in the original paper (receiver-operating-characteristic area-under-the-curve (AUC) 0.88 vs. 0.94, precision-recall AUC 0.69 vs. 0.70), and it made consistent predictions on longitudinal data (binary consistency 82%, probability consistency 93%).
