Yearly multiple sclerosis MRI follow-ups require the tedious and time-consuming manual comparing and counting of multiple demyelinating lesions, which can reach hundreds in some cases. We evaluated a semi-automatic software for the efficient assessment of such images, and found that a significant increase in the number of reported new multiple sclerosis lesions can be achieved in two-and-a-half minutes reading on average per case. In contrast, current standard reports missed 80% of the new lesions. In addition, The Jazz software permits the efficient reporting of slowly evolving lesions, an entity growing in clinical relevance and typically overlooked in current reporting.
