  • Title: Cortical Gray Matter MR Imaging in Multiple Sclerosis.
    Author: Calabrese M, Castellaro M.
    Journal: Neuroimaging Clin N Am; 2017 May; 27(2):301-312. PubMed ID: 28391788.
    Abstract:
    Several neuropathologic and imaging studies have consistently confirmed that multiple sclerosis affects both white (WM) and gray matter (GM) and that GM damage plays a key role in disability progression. However, differently from WM damage, the less inflammatory cell infiltration, the absence of significant blood-brain barrier damage, the low myelin density in upper cortical layers, as well as technical constraints, make the GM damage almost undetectable by means of conventional MR imaging.
