Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in multiple sclerosis (MS) reveals more plaques in younger patients. Plaque count correlates with spinal cord dimensions and brain structure, impacting disease progression.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Radiology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurological disease.
  • Accurate assessment of MS lesions is crucial for understanding disease progression.
  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a key diagnostic tool for MS.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) findings in patients with clinically definite multiple sclerosis (MS).
  • To investigate correlations between lesion characteristics, patient age, and specific anatomical measurements.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a 0.5 Tesla MRI scanner with spin-echo technique.
  • Performed linear measurements of ventricular and subarachnoid spaces.
  • Assessed grey matter, white matter, and MS plaque intensity, categorizing plaques by number and size.

Main Results:

  • Younger patients (20-40 years) exhibited a higher number of MS plaques compared to older patients (>40 years).
  • Smaller plaques were more frequent than larger ones.
  • Significant associations were found between plaque number and cella media width, white matter/grey matter intensity ratios and ventricular score, and MS plaque count and spinal cord diameter.

Conclusions:

  • MRI findings in MS patients demonstrate age-related differences in plaque burden.
  • Specific MRI metrics show significant correlations with anatomical changes in the brain and spinal cord.
  • These correlations may offer insights into the relationship between lesion load and physical manifestations of MS.
