Abstract:
:Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging was superior to CT for imaging the brain lesions of 27 patients with MS. The incidence of abnormal examinations was 78% by NMR and 63% by CT. In cases in which both studies were abnormal, NMR usually demonstrated many more lesions and more extensive involvement than CT. The appearance and locations of lesions identified by NMR were similar to those of autopsy studies of MS and may be relatively specific for this disease. Some lesions identified by CT disappeared during serial examinations, but lesions identified by NMR did not resolve over time. Seventy-five percent of the lesions were clinically "silent"; only 5% were definitely related to the clinical symptoms and signs. All of those lesions were located in the brainstem or cerebellar peduncles and were identified by NMR, but missed by CT.
