Progression of brain atrophy in the early stages of Parkinson's disease: A longitudinal tensor‐based morphometry study in de novo patients without cognitive impairment
Carlo Tessa,Claudio Lucetti,Marco Giannelli,Stefano Diciotti,Michele Poletti,Sabrina Danti,Filippo Baldacci,Claudio Vignali,Ubaldo Bonuccelli,Mario Mascalchi,Nicola Toschi,Nicola Toschi +11 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that even cognitively preserved PD patients show progressive cortical and subcortical atrophic changes in regions related to cognitive functions and that these changes are already detectable in the early stages of the disease.
Efficacy of MRI data harmonization in the age of machine learning. A multicenter study across 36 datasets
TL;DR: In this article , the ComBat harmonization is applied to the entire dataset before machine learning, which leads to data leakage, because information outside the training set may affect model building, and potentially falsely overestimate performance.
Collinearity and Dimensionality Reduction in Radiomics: Effect of Preprocessing Parameters in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Magnetic Resonance T1 and T2 Mapping
Chiara Marzi,Daniela Marfisi,Andrea Barucci,Jacopo Del Meglio,Alessio Lilli,Claudio Vignali,Mario Mascalchi,Giancarlo Casolo,Stefano Diciotti,A. C. Traino,Carlo Tessa,Marco Giannelli +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the effect of preprocessing in terms of voxel size resampling, discretization, and filtering on correlation-based dimensionality reduction in radiomic features from cardiac T1 and T2 maps of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was assessed.
Decreased and increased cortical activation coexist in de novo Parkinson's disease
Carlo Tessa,Claudio Lucetti,Stefano Diciotti,Filippo Baldacci,Lorenzo Paoli,Paolo Cecchi,Marco Giannelli,Andrea Ginestroni,Paolo Del Dotto,Roberto Ceravolo,Claudio Vignali,Ubaldo Bonuccelli,Mario Mascalchi +12 more
TL;DR: In PD patients the disease severity evaluated with the Hoehn and Yahr staging system correlated significantly with activation of left SM1 and supplementary motor area and cingulum, bilaterally and the mixed pattern of decreased and increased cortical activation in de novo PD patients possibly reflects the coexistence of cortical deafferentation, and compensatory phenomena by cortico-cortical circuits.
Proton MR spectroscopy of the cerebellum and pons in patients with degenerative ataxia.
Mario Mascalchi,Mirco Cosottini,Francesco Lolli,Fabrizio Salvi,Carlo Tessa,Marco Macucci,Michela Tosetti,Rosaria Plasmati,Alessandra Ferlini,Carlo Alberto Tassinari,Natale Villari +10 more
TL;DR: Brain MR imaging and single-voxel proton MR spectroscopy of the right cerebellar hemisphere and pons performed in patients with sporadic or inherited degenerative ataxia revealed patients had olivopontocerebellar atrophy, which showed a correlation with disability.
