• Brain Tumor Segmentation Based on Minimum Spanning Tree 

      Mayala, Simeon Sahani; Herdlevær, Ida Ajvazi; Haugsøen, Jonas Bull; Anandan, Shamundeeswari; Gavasso, Sonia; Brun, Morten (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-11)
      In this paper, we propose a minimum spanning tree-based method for segmenting brain tumors. The proposed method performs interactive segmentation based on the minimum spanning tree without tuning parameters. The steps ...
    • CDR2L Is the Major Yo Antibody Target in Paraneoplastic Cerebellar Degeneration 

      Kråkenes, Torbjørn; Herdlevær, Ida Ajvazi; Raspotnig, Margrethe; Haugen, Mette; Schubert, Manja; Vedeler, Christian A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      The pathogenesis of Yo‐mediated paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration (PCD) is unclear. We applied cerebrospinal fluid and serum from PCD patients as well as CDR2 and CDR2L antibodies to neuronal tissue, cancer cell lines, ...
    • A cerebellar degeneration-related protein 2-like cell-based assay for anti-Yo detection in patients with paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration 

      Erikstad, Kjell Inge; Herdlevær, Ida Ajvazi; Peter, Elise Marie; Haugen, Mette; Totland, Cecilie; Vedeler, Christian Alexander (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Background and purpose Commercially available tests for Yo antibody detection have low specificity for paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration (PCD) because these assays use cerebellar degeneration-related protein 2 (CDR2) ...
    • GUBS: Graph-Based Unsupervised Brain Segmentation in MRI Images 

      Mayala, Simeon Sahani; Herdlevær, Ida Ajvazi; Haugsøen, Jonas Bull; Anandan, Shamundeeswari; Blaser, Nello; Gavasso, Sonia; Brun, Morten (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Brain segmentation in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images is the process of isolating the brain from non-brain tissues to simplify the further analysis, such as detecting pathology or calculating volumes. This paper ...
    • Localization of CDR2L and CDR2 in paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration 

      Herdlevær, Ida Ajvazi; Kråkenes, Torbjørn; Schubert, Manja; Vedeler, Christian A. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Objective: Identify the subcellular location and potential binding partners of two cerebellar degeneration‐related proteins, CDR2L and CDR2, associated with anti‐Yo‐mediated paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration. Methods: ...
    • Paraneoplastic and Other Autoimmune Encephalitides: Antineuronal Antibodies, T Lymphocytes, and Questions of Pathogenesis 

      Greenlee, John E.; Carlson, Noel G.; Abbatemarco, Justin R.; Herdlevær, Ida Ajvazi; Clardy, Stacey L.; Vedeler, Christian Alexander (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Autoimmune and paraneoplastic encephalitides represent an increasingly recognized cause of devastating human illness as well as an emerging area of neurological injury associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Two ...
