We aim to determine if machine learning techniques, such as support vector machines (SVMs), can predict the occurrence of a second clinical attack, which leads to the diagnosis of clinically-definite Multiple Sclerosis (CDMS) in patients with a clini...
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans play a pivotal role in the evaluation of patients presenting with a clinically isolated syndrome (CIS), as these may depict brain lesions suggestive of an inflammatory cause. We hypothesized that it is possible ...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The unanticipated detection by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the brain of asymptomatic subjects of white matter lesions suggestive of multiple sclerosis (MS) has been named radiologically isolated syndrome (RIS). As the ...
The intra-axonal water exchange time (τ), a parameter associated with axonal permeability, could be an important biomarker for understanding and treating demyelinating pathologies such as Multiple Sclerosis. Diffusion-Weighted MRI (DW-MRI) is sensiti...
INTRODUCTION: Predicting the conversion of clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) to clinically definite multiple sclerosis (CDMS) is critical to personalizing treatment planning and benefits for patients. The aim of this study is to develop an explainab...
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological disorder characterized by immune dysregulation. It begins with a first clinical manifestation, a clinically isolated syndrome (CIS), which evolves to definite MS in case of further clinical and/or neuroradiol...
