Summary

Correlation of serum lactate and activity of multiple sclerosis and its correlation to different type of MS

Conditions

Interventions

RADIATION

Magentic resonanace imaging

The brain MR imaging examinations were done by using a 3 tesla scanner (Acheiva; Philips Medical Systems, Best, Netherlands). All patients were examined in the supine position using head coil. Routine images (T2, T1, FLAIR) and double inversion recovery sequence (DIR) were done to all patients: repetition time (TR) \_ 9583 sec, echo time (TE) \_ 25 sec, inversion time (TI) \_ 3400 sec, IR delay \_ 325 sec, echo train length (ETL) \_ 17, 50 contiguous axial slices, thickness \_ 3 mm, matrix size 240× 142 mm2, field of view (FOV) 230× 184 mm2.

RADIATION

Magentic resonanace spectroscopy

Magnetic Resonance (MR) spectroscopy is a noninvasive diagnostic test for measuring biochemical changes in the brain.While magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) identifies the anatomical location of a lesion, MR spectroscopy compares the chemical composition of normal brain tissue with abnormal brain tissue. This test can also be used to detect tissue changes in stroke and epilepsy.
