* Definition by icometrix!
Brain imaging biomarkers are features that can be detected on a medical brain scan (visually or by computerized analyses). For patients with a neurological disorder, imaging biomarkers provide the neurologist with key information on how the disease is progressing in their brain. Imaging biomarkers can therefore give an indication of how well treatment is working. *
