In this study, patients with multiple sclerosis "sub-groups" characteristics in relation to detection of a statistically
(SPSS) and are provided in the Bayesian network. The main objective of this study, regarding the appearance of MRI lesions
in patients with Multiple Sclerosis information and / or EDSS scores to investigate the possible attack of multiple sclerosis
subgroups. Bayesian networks, reflects the level of sub-groups in multiple sclerosis patients. Analyzes were conducted to
determine the change of these properties. MR images of the input data is discussed for the MS patients, the sub-groups of MS,
"Remitting Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis", "Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis" with their patients' clinical brain MR
images, brain stem, and the Upper Cervical Regions of the corpus callosum-periventricular lesions created in the
information. Multiple Sclerosis is owned by the input data is created correctly identify disease subgroups of MS patients for
the number of lesions in MR images and MR image of the three regions for the year for which the information used in the
EDSS score. Of MS is RRMS, SPMS correctly identify sub-groups of the brain with Brain Stem, and upper cervical regions
of the corpus callosum-periventricular lesions in these three points for the region and / or EDSS score information can be
emphasized by using the Bayesian networks play an important role in the analysis.
