New diagnostic criteria for multiple sclerosis in patients with clinically isolated syndromes: Some questions could be raised during clinical practice
Montalban et al. reported the new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) diagnostic criteria for multiple sclerosis (MS) in patients with clinically isolated syndromes.1 In the past decades, several diagnostic criteria for MS have been developed and used according to demonstration of lesions disseminated in space and time. The European Multicenter Collaborative Research Network on MRI in MS (MAGNIMS)...
متن کاملRole of MRI criteria and OB for diagnosing multiple sclerosis in patients presenting with clinically isolated syndromes.
It has now become evident through the work of several authors that the presence of oligoclonal bands (OBs) in patients with clinically isolated syndromes (CIS) increases the risk of having a second attack and is therefore useful in identifying patients at risk for developing multiple sclerosis (MS) [1,2]. However, as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is invariably recommended to establish a diag...
متن کاملApplication of the 2010 revised criteria for the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis to patients with clinically isolated syndromes.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Recently, the McDonald criteria for the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) have been revised, with the aims to diagnose earlier and to simplify the use of brain MRI. To validate the 2010 revised criteria they were applied to a cohort of patients with clinically isolated syndromes (CIS). METHODS In all, 178 CIS patients were followed from onset. Test characteristics we...
متن کاملMagnetization transfer imaging in patients with clinically isolated syndromes suggestive of multiple sclerosis.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), reduced magnetization transfer ratios (MTRs) have been reported in white matter that appears normal on studies obtained with conventional imaging techniques. The stage in the disease when this first becomes detectable is unclear. The purpose of this study was to measure the MTR of normal-appearing white matter (NAWM) and lesions i...
متن کاملAssessment of Early Cognitive Impairment in Patients with Clinically Isolated Syndromes and Multiple Sclerosis
Objective. The aim of our study was to investigate the frequency and pattern of cognitive impairment in patients with clinically isolated syndromes and definite diagnosis of multiple sclerosis within the last 2 years. Methods. We assessed the cognitive status of 46 patients aged 18-49 years with clinically isolated syndromes or definite diagnosis of multiple sclerosis who have onset of their sy...
متن کاملDoes high-field MR imaging have an influence on the classification of patients with clinically isolated syndromes according to current diagnostic mr imaging criteria for multiple sclerosis?
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Current MR imaging criteria for multiple sclerosis (MS) do not specify the magnetic field strength. The aim of this study was to investigate whether different MR imaging field strengths, specifically high-field MR imaging, have an impact on the classification of patients with clinically isolated syndromes suggestive of MS, according to MR imaging and diagnostic criteria. ...
