The Lesion Characterization module is part of the AI-based software mdbrain. The automated characterization of lesions is typically available in less than 5 minutes. The results are integrated into the PACS as PDF reports and overlays. The automatic segmentation and characterization simplifies the differential diagnostics for patients with MS and dementia.

The lesions are quantified in terms of their number and volume. The characterization includes the regional assignment according to MAGNIMS/McDonald criteria and differentiation of new and enlarged lesions over time. This allows for comprehensive monitoring of disease progression. The results are summarized in a report that combines the findings from all examinations for an optimized follow-up assessment.
