—Recently developed imaging techniques thought impossible only a few years ago may be beneficial in detecting MS lesions of the spinal cord. Reviewed by Aaron Miller, MD, Professor of Neurology, Icahn ...

Radiomics offers improved assessment of spinal cord pathology in MS, surpassing conventional MRI in precision and sensitivity. A study identified 12 significant radiomic features, with four ...

Brain MRI without contrast agent is just as effective as the contrast-enhanced approach for monitoring disease progression in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), according to a new study in the ...

MRI provides a very sensitive reflection of the histopathological changes in multiple sclerosis. Many short-term studies fail to appreciate the relationship between MRI and clinical findings, although ...

Experts from the University of Nottingham have proven that multiple sclerosis (MS) can successfully be diagnosed using an MRI scan, meaning patients no longer need to undergo a painful lumbar puncture ...

—In a new study, the extent of microstructural damage in patients with early relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) was associated with worse disability and spinal cord atrophy at 5 years. Here ...

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-based molecular tests can reliably distinguish multiple sclerosis (MS) from other neurological ...

Molecular imaging is redefining in vivo characterization of multiple sclerosis, a demyelinating disease with complex and heterogeneous clinical profiles. Recent advances in PET tracers enable more ...

Multiple sclerosis occurs when a person’s immune system is triggered to attack the myelin sheath—a protective coating surrounding nerve cells in the central nervous system (CNS). The CNS is made up of ...

MS is a condition in which the immune system attacks the protective covering of the nerves in your brain and spinal cord. These damaged areas are called lesions and are part of an MS diagnosis. Share ...
