Journal ArticleDOI

Predicting the severity of relapsing-remitting MS: The contribution of cross-sectional and short-term follow-up MRI data:

TL;DR: The results failed to confirm a clear independent contribution of cross-sectional and short-term follow-up MRI data for the prediction of the long-term clinical course of MS, and the MSSS is not a stable indicator of disease severity but may increase in converters to SPMS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Troyer syndrome: a combination of central brain abnormality and motor neuron disease?

TL;DR: The Troyer syndrome is characterized as a disorder of the first and second motor neuron with additional damage in the brain and morphological features observed in this family may contribute to the grouping and subsequent understanding of complicated forms of hereditary spastic paraplegia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Primary leptomeningeal lymphoma of the cauda equina: a rare cause of radiculopathy.

TL;DR: A 69-year-old immunocompetent man complained about increasing low back pain and moderate weakness of the left leg, which had slowly developed over 1 year, and underwent an extensive laboratory and image work-up to rule out malignant, autoimmune, or infectious disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measuring Gray Matter and White Matter Damage in MS: Why This is Not Enough

TL;DR: It is suggested that it is unlikely to ever achieve a satisfactory level of explanation and prediction of an individual patient’s condition-based solely on morphologic information, although such insights might be better suited to define disease progression than clinical assessment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved perfusion and tracer kinetic imaging using parallel imaging.

TL;DR: The basic principles of kinetic analysis, the contrast mechanisms used and the scan techniques applied are addressed to give a better understanding of the influence of parallel imaging on dynamic contrast enhanced MRI.
