Summary

This project is to:

1. Quantify differences in axonal integrity and organization in aMS versus naPMS patients.
2. Quantify changes in axonal integrity and organization in aMS versus naPMS patients over a two-year period.
3. Validate the combination of imaging parameters that best differentiate aMS versus naPMS patients using histopathology.

Conditions

  • Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
  • Relapsing-remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS)
  • Secondary-progressive Multiple Sclerosis (SPMS)
  • Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (PPMS)
