abstract = {The hypothalamus as one of the core structures in metabolic
control is increasingly recognized to be morphologically
altered in various neurodegenerative diseases.The purpose of
this study was to quantitatively investigate the
hypothalamic volumes in patients with progressive
supranuclear palsy (PSP) and to compare them with controls
and Parkinson disease (PD) patients.An automatic
hypothalamic volume quantification method based on the use
of convolutional neural networks (CNN) of U-Net architecture
was applied to the automatic segmentation of the
hypothalamus and intracranial volumes (ICV). This CNN-based
volumetric analysis was performed in high resolution T1
weighted MRI in two PSP cohorts: cohort A with 78 PSP
patients and 63 controls was recorded at 3.0 T at multiple
sites; the single site cohort B consisted of 66 PSP
patients, 66 PD patients, and 44 controls, recorded at 1.5
T.In cohort A, significant hypothalamic volume reduction was
observed in PSP (774 ± 83 mm3) when compared to controls
(817 ± 74 mm3). In cohort B, this result of significant
hypothalamic volume reduction was confirmed in PSP (745 ±
102 mm3) when compared to controls (831 ± 81 mm3); no
significant hypothalamic volume reduction was observed in PD
(797 ± 98 mm3), in support of previous studies.The
CNN-based hypothalamus volume quantification study
demonstrated significantly reduced hypothalamus volumes in
PSP patients compared to controls and PD, respectively;
future studies will address the metabolic profiles of PSP as
potential functional correlates.},
