A Novel Public MR Image Dataset of Multiple Sclerosis Patients With Lesion Segmentations Based on Multi-rater Consensus.

Quantified volume and count of white-matter lesions based on magnetic resonance (MR) images are important biomarkers in several neurodegenerative diseases. For a routine extraction of these biomarkers an accurate and reliable automated lesion segmentation is required. To objectively and reliably determine a standard automated method, however, creation of standard validation datasets is of extremely high importance.
