  • Title: CT detection of demyelinated plaques in multiple sclerosis.
    Author: Haughton VM, Ho KC, Williams AL, Eldevik OP.
    Journal: AJR Am J Roentgenol; 1979 Feb; 132(2):213-5. PubMed ID: 105586.
    Abstract:
    CT images and anatomic slices of two brains containing numerous demyelinated plaques were correlated. Demyelinated plaques smaller than 0.7 cm were not detected by CT. Some larger plaques were misinterpreted as normal structures. These and other considerations suggest that chronic cerebral demyelination cannot be excluded by negative nonenhanced CT scan.
