NORHA: A NORmal Hippocampal Asymmetry Deviation Index Based on One-Class Novelty Detection and 3D Shape Features

Radiologists routinely analyze hippocampal asymmetries in magnetic resonance (MR) images as a biomarker for neurodegenerative conditions like epilepsy and Alzheimer’s Disease. However, current clinical tools rely on either subjective evaluations, basic volume measurements, or disease-specific models...

In this paper, we overcome these limitations by introducing NORHA, a novel NORmal Hippocampal Asymmetry deviation index that uses machine learning novelty detection to objectively quantify it from MR scans. NORHA is based on a One-Class Support Vector Machine model learned from a set of morphological features extracted from automatically segmented hippocampi of healthy subjects. Hence, in test time, the model automatically measures how far a new unseen sample falls with respect to the feature space of normal individuals. This avoids biases produced by standard classification models, which require being trained using diseased cases and therefore learning to characterize changes produced only by the ones. We evaluated our new index in multiple clinical use cases using public and private MRI datasets comprising control individuals and subjects with different levels of dementia or epilepsy. The index reported high values for subjects with unilateral atrophies and remained low for controls or individuals with mild or severe symmetric bilateral changes. It also showed high AUC values for discriminating individuals with hippocampal sclerosis, further emphasizing its ability to characterize unilateral abnormalities. Finally, a positive correlation between NORHA and the functional cognitive test CDR-SB was observed, highlighting its promising application as a biomarker for dementia.
