abstract = {White matter hyperintensities (WMH), a biomarker of small
vessel disease, are often found in Alzheimer's disease (AD)
and their advanced detection and quantification can be
beneficial for research and clinical applications. To
investigate WMH in large-scale multicenter studies on
cognitive impairment and AD, appropriate automated WMH
segmentation algorithms are required. This study aimed to
compare the performance of segmentation tools and provide
information on their application in multicenter research.We
used a pseudo-randomly selected dataset (n = 50) from the
DZNE-multicenter observational Longitudinal Cognitive
Impairment and Dementia Study (DELCODE) that included 3D
fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) images from
participants across the cognitive continuum. Performances of
top-rated algorithms for automated WMH segmentation [Brain
Intensity Abnormality Classification Algorithm (BIANCA),
lesion segmentation toolbox (LST), lesion growth algorithm
(LGA), LST lesion prediction algorithm (LPA), pgs, and
$sysu_media]$ were compared to manual reference segmentation
(RS).Across tools, segmentation performance was moderate for
global WMH volume and number of detected lesions. After
retraining on a DELCODE subset, the deep learning algorithm
$sysu_media$ showed the highest performances with an average
Dice's coefficient of 0.702 (±0.109 SD) for volume and a
mean F1-score of 0.642 (±0.109 SD) for the number of
lesions. The intra-class correlation was excellent for all
algorithms (>0.9) but BIANCA (0.835). Performance improved
with high WMH burden and varied across brain regions.To
conclude, the deep learning algorithm, when retrained,
performed well in the multicenter context. Nevertheless, the
performance was close to traditional methods. We provide
methodological recommendations for future studies using
automated WMH segmentation to quantify and assess WMH along
the continuum of cognitive impairment and AD dementia.},
