Highlights • A fully automated segmentation of new or enlarged multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions.• 3D convolutional neural network (CNN) with U-net-like encoder-decoder architecture.• Simultaneous processing of baseline and follow-up scan of the same patient.• Trained on 3253 patient data from over 103 different MR scanners.• Fast (<1min), robust algorithm with segmentation results in inter-rater variability.
