Deep Learning Framework for Automated MRI Planimetry in Multiple Sclerosis.
Article in International journal of biomedical imaging, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Brain volume changes and infratentorial involvement are key predictors of disability in multiple sclerosis (MS) and can be assessed using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) planimetry. Although MRI planimetry is less susceptible to methodological and patient-related confounders than volumetry, it currently depends on manual measurements by unblinded experts, an approach that is time-consuming and vulnerable to bias. In this study, we present a fully automated deep learning framework for deriving brainstem planimetric measurements from MRI. The pipeline integrates an automated midsagittal plane (MSP) detection algorithm with a convolutional neural network trained to perform the segmentations required for planimetry. The automated method shows strong agreement with manual measurements and remains robust across scanners and acquisition protocols. These findings suggest that the proposed framework enables reliable, reproducible, and scalable MRI planimetry, supporting objective assessment of disease progression and treatment response in patients with MS.
