method of providing information for diagnosis of Parkinson's disease using the volume of neuromelanine region

摘要

According to an aspect of the present invention, an information providing method for diagnosing Parkinson's disease using a volume of a neuromelanin region includes: a first step of acquiring an MRI image of a patient's brain by an image receiving unit; a second step of preprocessing the acquired MRI image so that the image preprocessor can observe the neuromelanin region used as an image biomarker for Parkinson's disease; a third step of analyzing the pre-processed MRI image by an image processing unit and classifying the first image including the neuromelanin region; a fourth step of the image processing unit detecting the neuromelanin region from the classified first image; and a fifth step of generating information about the patient related to the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease by analyzing the detected neuromelanin region by an image analysis unit, and in the fourth step, the image processing unit, the first image Calculate the volume of the neuromelanin region based on , and in the fifth step, the image analysis unit may generate information about the patient related to the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease using the calculated volume of the neuromelanin region. .
