In a human or animal brain or other nerve tissue, specific objects or conditions, such as brain lesions and plaques, serve as indicators, or biomarkers, of neurological disease. In a three-dimensional image of the region of interest (102), the biomarkers are identified and quantified (104). Multiple three-dimensional images can be taken over time, in which the biomarkers can be tracked over time (106 and 108). Statistical segmentation techniques are used to identify the biomarker in a first image and to carry the identification over to the remaining images.
Sachant que des éléments ou des conditions spécifiques propres au cerveau ou à d'autres types de tissus nerveux chez l'homme ou l'animal (par exemple, lésion ou plaque cérébrale, ou biomarqueur), servent d'indicateurs ou de biomarqueurs pour les maladies neurologiques, on peut identifier et quantifier (104) ce type de biomarqueur dans une image tridimensionnelle de la région visée (102). Il est possible de recueillir plusieurs images tridimensionnelles dans le temps, afin d'identifier les biomarqueurs sur la durée (106 et 108). Des techniques de segmentation statistique permettent d'identifier le biomarqueur considéré dans une première image et de reporter l'identification aux images suivantes.
