An MRI may identify the early warning signs of multiple sclerosis, a new study suggests, even in those who do not show signs of the disease. Researchers found brain abnormalities similar to those ...

New magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) research shows that changes in brain blood flow associated with vein abnormalities are not specific for multiple sclerosis (MS) and do not contribute to its ...

Contrast agent linked with brain abnormalities on MRI Date: December 17, 2013 Source: Radiological Society of North America Summary: For the first time, researchers have confirmed an association ...

There is no cure, but physical therapy and medications can slow its progression. Lesions to the brain’s signal-carrying white matter are the most readily detectable manifestation of MS on MRI.

By the time multiple sclerosis (MS) is diagnosed in children, it may be difficult to prevent the disabilities and relapses that come with the disease. In a new Yale School of Medicine study, ...

Neema et al. Deep Gray Matter Involvement on Brain MRI Scans Is Associated with Clinical Progression in Multiple Sclerosis. Journal of Neuroimaging, 2008; DOI: 10.1111/j.1552-6569.2008.00296.x ...

New York, October 15 MRI brain scans can help identify children at high risk of developing multiple sclerosis (MS) much before symptoms appear, which may lead to earlier diagnosis and treatment. By ...

"If you take 100 normal people off the street, 5% of them will have an abnormal-looking brain MRI — it's just the way they were put together; it doesn't mean they have MS." ...

Approximately 42% of children in the study with MRI findings of MS developed the first clinical symptoms of the disease about two years after the abnormal MRI, which shows a faster development of the ...
