- Axes check- Validation vs Pathology- Publication Policy- Paper Publications- Congress presentations & Meetings
VIII PMT meeting – Mar 21, 2012
Delphi – V round
1. Methodological problem: shift on hippo axis might invalidate Landmark definition
2. New evidence shows that very good volume ICC on both axis, but advantage of AC-PC for overlapping agreement
3. The AC-PC advantage might be due to better visualization of CSF separating caudal amygdala from hippocampal head
4. We propose the solution to keep AC-PC, and ask level of agreement
5. Those who do not agree are required to propose an argument in support of the hippo axis that can properly overcome the methodological problem
6. It is explicitly stated that PMT will take the final decision.
The AC-PC advantage might be due to better visualization of CSF separating caudal amygdala from hippocampal head
Axial visualization of MTL in images oriented along:
AC-PC
Hippo axes
Validation versus pathology
Local Protocol:1.5T 3D T1-weighted scans from (Bobinski et al., 2000)pathologically verified set(total for rater: 30 hippos)
1 tracer
Qualification on benchmark images(total for each rater: 40 hippos)
Harmonized Protocol:1.5T 3D T1-weighted scans from (Bobinski et al., 2000)pathologically verified set(total for rater: 30 hippos)
RM-ANOVA: test of protocol main effect
WHICH SAMPLE?
Validation versus pathology
Originally designated sample: (Bobinski et al., 2000)
11 AD + 4 CTRLpostmortem MRI and quantitative histology
de Leon: 15 AD + 5 CTRLpostmortem MRI and quantitative histology possible additional AD cases
Jack: AD + CTRL dataset with pathologically confirmed diagnosis (controls and AD), but not post-mortem hippocampal measurement.
PUBLICATION POLICY
Revision and final approval by PMT
“From the end of the Delphi panel and until publication of the paper reporting full validation data, the protocol and accompanying digital data will not be released for public use except for beta-testing purposes. Beta testers will need to submit an application to the project Steering Committee and will need to accept to provide formal feedback on the use of the products of the Project.”
Papers describing the project
Survey of protocols (preliminary phase; published, JAD 2011)
Operationalization (preliminary phase; submitted to Alzheimer’s & Dementia, MS n. ADJ-D-12-00094)
Delphi consensus (Brescia Team, in progress)
Master tracers’ practice and reliability (Brescia Team, in progress)
Development of certification platform (Duchesne and coll?)
Validation data and Protocol definition (Brescia Team)
Validation vs pathology (TBD)
Benchmark Harmonized hippos:1.5T ADNI scans2 x each of the 5
Scheltens’s atrophy score x 2 sides(SAME on 3T ADNI scans)
(total for each rater: 40 hippos)
5 expert tracers
20 naive tracers
The best 5 naive tracers
Harmonized Protocol:1.5T ADNI scans
2 sides x 5 Scheltens’s atrophy scores x 3 time points (0-12°month-24°month)
x 3 scanners + retracing for timepoint 1(SAME on 3T ADNI scans)
(total for each rater: 240 hippos – including40 hippos already traced)
GOLD STANDARD
