During the last 25 years, ECTRIMS has served as Europe\u2019s and the world\u2019s largest professional organization dedicated to the understanding and treatment of <strong>Multiple Sclerosis<\/strong> (MS). The conference includes three days of oral presentations authored by the <strong>world-top scientists and clinical experts<\/strong> on the field. Furthermore, the conference provides also several poster sessions which are useful to both spread the research and community networking.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As a former <strong>Magnetic Resonance Imaging<\/strong> in Multiple Sclerosis (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.magnims.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MAGNIMS<\/a>) grant fellow, <a href=\"http:\/\/vicorob.udg.edu\/vicorob\/members\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mariano Cabezas<\/a> participated in the MAGNIMS alumni meeting on Wednesday 10th. Mariano presented his previous research on new lesion detection developed during his stage at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vallhebron.com\/ca\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Vall d&#8217;Hebron Hospital<\/a> in Barcelona. His resulting research has permitted clinical experts to <strong>automatically delineate new lesions on MS patients<\/strong>, reducing significantly the variability between experts and also the diagnosis time.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, we presented also two posters on automated lesion detection using deep learning during the conference. <a href=\"http:\/\/vicorob.udg.edu\/vicorob\/members\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sergi Valverde<\/a> introduced our new pipeline <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/sergivalverde\/nicMSlesions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">nicMSlesions<\/a>, which has been lately re-designed to reduce the amount of training data, allowing <strong>accurate lesion segmentation<\/strong> using few or even a single training image. Similarly, we also presented an extensive analysis of different state-of-the-art deep learning pipelines applied also to lesion segmentation done by our PhD student <a href=\"http:\/\/vicorob.udg.edu\/vicorob\/members\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Albert Cl\u00e9rigues<\/a>. In this work, we analyzed six different brain lesion segmentation deep learning models, studying the effect of their characteristics on the accuracy segmenting MS lesions.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The conference was an interesting opportunity to share experiences and learn from the world-top experts in the field. It was also a fantastic opportunity to have feedback from our tools and also to understand better the clinical expert needs. We strongly believe that our tools can<strong> continue contributing to the MS field, helping the clinical experts to monitor and diagnose the disease.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-6673\" src=\"https:\/\/vicorob.udg.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/posters.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"785\" height=\"442\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vicorob.udg.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/posters.jpeg 785w, https:\/\/vicorob.udg.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/posters-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/vicorob.udg.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/posters-768x432.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 785px) 100vw, 785px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>European Committee for treatment and research in Multiple Sclerosis (ECTRIMS) that was held in Berlin, Germany, from October 10th to 12th, 2018.
