Random Walk Imaging’s Software Protocol Enables Detection of White Matter Damage in MS Patients’ Brain Tissue that Appears Healthy with Conventional Medical Imaging Methods
The data from this study provide convincing evidence that microscopic mapping substantially advances the assessment of cerebral white matter degeneration in MS.
- The data from this study provide convincing evidence that microscopic mapping substantially advances the assessment of cerebral white matter degeneration in MS.
- Using the analysis tool from RWI, we were able to evaluate the damage to the white matter with remarkable detail, by separately analyzing tissue shape and orientation.
- Multiple sclerosis attacks the nerve myelin and fibers of the central nervous system, leading to diffuse damage of the brain network.
- Apart from the visually detected lesions on the MRI scan, MS also affects the normal-appearing white matter.
