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.

NeuroTS-Net is a 3‑D encoder‑decoder CNN designed for multi‑class semantic segmentation of pediatric brain tumors in multi‑modal MRI. It uses a dual‑scale raw‑detail stream, adaptive low‑resolution context selection, and detail‑preserving multipath downsampling to maintain fine intensity and boundary information while modeling broader tumor context. Trained on the BraTS 2026 pediatric dataset, it outperformed nnU‑Net and MedNeXt, achieving Dice scores of 0.938/0.937 on internal validation and 0.927/0.926 on the official challenge set.

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 paper presents ORB-SVM, a hybrid framework that combines the ORB algorithm for feature extraction with a Support Vector Machine for classifying brain tumors in MRI scans. It achieves a 99.5% reduction in data size while preserving key diagnostic features, and reports a 97.5% classification accuracy on the Br35H dataset. This approach offers a resource‑efficient alternative to deep learning models, reducing computational cost and data requirements.

The study evaluated a pragmatic deep‑learning approach for segmenting acute ischemic stroke lesions on diffusion‑weighted MRI. Using a self‑configured nnU‑Net trained on 1,744 cases and tested on 436, the baseline model achieved a median Dice similarity coefficient of 0.84, outperforming the DeepISLES ensemble, especially for smaller infarcts. The approach required minimal preprocessing and fast inference, suggesting it could streamline clinical stroke imaging workflows.
