In-vivo imaging of meningeal inflammation in multiple sclerosis: Presence of evidence or evidence of presence?
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent histopathology studies suggest the presence of meningeal inflammation in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) that might be associated with subpial cortical demyelination and a rather worse disease course.1 Although a radiologist is not a pathologist, diagnostic neuroradiology aims to visualize and to detect almost every (subtle) pathological feature of a disease to its full extent. To be able to translate histopathological results into radiological images will create an opportunity to visualize them in an in-vivo setting.

P142: Inflammation or Neurodegeneration: Which one has Remarkable Role in Multiple Sclerosis?
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a complex disease resulting from the occurrence of intermingled episodes of neuroinflammation and degeneration. However, this concept has recently challenged by several observations suggesting that in this disease neurodegeneration might occur independently of inflammation. The evidence that active neurodegeneration in MS is invariably associated with inflammation is p...

Background and Aims: Multiple Sclerosis is a chronic and autoimmune disease, which causes inflammation and demyelination of the axons in CNS. Studies have indicated that Herpesviruses might be one of the potential environmental elements that can trigger the initiation of the inflammatory cascade in MS. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the genome of CMV and (or) EBV is present ...
