Patch-Based Segmentation with Spatial Consistency: Application to MS Lesions in Brain MRI

Table 1

Comparison of current method to three state-of-the-art methods on clinical brain image data from the public part of MICCAI 08 challenge [22]. TPR, PPV, and DSC are in %, where 100 is perfect segmentation.
