  • Title: [Magnetic resonance and multiple sclerosis I. Conventional diagnostic techniques].
    Author: Mathiesen HK, Langkilde AR, Larsson HB.
    Journal: Ugeskr Laeger; 2002 Feb 18; 164(8):1026-31. PubMed ID: 11894702.
    Abstract:
    Conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is still the standard technique in the diagnosis and follow-up of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), despite low pathological specificity and poor correlation to the disability. The results of T2- and T1-weighted imaging with and without contrast and the lesion characteristics are presented in this review. The numerous differential diagnoses and the diagnostic MRI criteria are also reviewed.
