Abstract/OtherAbstract:
MRI has rapidly become a leading research tool in the study of multiple sclerosis (MS). Conventional imaging is useful in diagnosis and management of the inflammatory stages of MS but has limitations in describing the degree of tissue injury and cause of progressive disability seen in later stages. Advanced MRI techniques hold promise for filling this void. These imaging tools hold great promise to increase understanding of MS pathogenesis and provide greater insight into the efficacy of new MS therapies.
