The paper presents a multimodal 3D convolutional neural network that classifies Alzheimer’s disease using raw OASIS 1 MRI volumes. It fuses structural T1 images with gray matter, white matter, and cerebrospinal fluid probability maps to capture complementary neuroanatomical information. Evaluated with 5‑fold subject‑level cross‑validation, the model achieves a mean accuracy of 72.34 % and an ROC AUC of 0.7781, with GradCAM visualizations highlighting anatomically relevant regions such as the medial temporal lobe and ventricles.

The study presents a multimodal BrainAGE framework that fuses structural T1-weighted MRI with DeepCBV maps—vascular information synthesized from non‑contrast MRI—to estimate brain age more accurately. Using two separate 3D convolutional neural networks, the combined model achieved a mean absolute error of 3.95 years on cognitively normal controls, outperforming single‑modality models. Saliency analyses showed MRI highlighted white matter and cortical atrophy, while DeepCBV emphasized vascular‑rich regions, and the integrated approach revealed stronger differentiation between stable and progressive MCI, indicating sensitivity to early vascular changes.

Neurological disorders involve diverse pathologies of the brain and nervous system, making early and accurate detection essential. While many deep CNNs have been developed for MRI-based classification of neurological disorders, most are optimized for binary tasks and often fail to capture the multi-class features needed to distinguish subtle anatomical differences across conditions.
