Abstract
A magnetic resonance imaging white matter hyperintensities region recognizing method and system are disclosed herein. The white matter hyperintensities region recognizing method includes receiving and storing a FLAIR MRI image, a spin-lattice relaxation time weighted MRI image, and a diffusion weighted MRI image. Registration and fusion are preformed, and a white matter mask is determined. An intersection image of the FLAIR MRI image and the white matter mask is taken, a first region is determined after normalizing the intersection image, a cerebral infarct region is removed from the first image through the diffusion weighted MRI image, and then a determination is made as to whether to remove a remaining region in order to form a white matter hyperintensities region in the FLAIR MRI image.
