This study introduces a novel pipeline for pinpointing specific brain regions in MRI scans using 2D convolutional neural networks. The method successfully identified sex-based differences in the anterior cingulate cortex.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroimaging
  • Radiology
  • Artificial Intelligence in Medicine

Background:

  • Detecting subtle, localized neuroanatomical signals in brain MRI is crucial for clinical diagnosis and understanding disease mechanisms.
  • Challenges persist in reliably identifying these signals within high-dimensional MRI data.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a performance-guided pipeline for identifying candidate spatial regions in brain MRI.
  • To leverage 2D convolutional neural networks for efficient slice-level analysis and 3D region localization.

Main Methods:

  • A 2D slice-based pipeline using convolutional neural networks for binary classification on MRI slices.
  • Employing occlusion-based attribution analysis on the best-performing slices to generate localization maps.

  • Joint examination of attribution maps to identify a candidate 3D brain region.
  • Main Results:

    • The pipeline successfully identified a spatially localized candidate region associated with sex classification.
    • The identified region corresponded to the anterior cingulate cortex and adjacent medial structures.
    • Findings align with existing neuroanatomical knowledge of sex differences in these brain areas.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed pipeline offers an effective method for identifying localized neuroanatomical signals in brain MRI.
    • This approach can aid in medical diagnosis and the investigation of neurological conditions.
    • The technique demonstrates potential for discovering subtle, spatially specific biomarkers in neuroimaging.
