Summary

This study will evaluate a new brain MRI technique called ENRAGED FLAIR in patients with multiple sclerosis. MRI is central in the diagnosis and follow-up of multiple sclerosis because it can show inflammatory lesions in the brain. A standard MS brain MRI examination usually includes T2-FLAIR images, which are used to detect and assess MS lesions, and T1-weighted images, which provide anatomical information and help with interpretation of lesion location.

These image types are usually acquired as separate scans. ENRAGED FLAIR is designed to acquire both T2-FLAIR and T1-weighted images during the same MRI sequence. The purpose of this study is to compare ENRAGED FLAIR with standard clinical MRI in patients with multiple sclerosis.

Adult patients with multiple sclerosis who are already scheduled for a clinical brain MRI may be asked to participate. Participants will undergo one additional MRI sequence during the same visit. No extra contrast agent will be given, and no extra visit is required. The additional scan is expected to increase the examination time by about 5 to 10 minutes.

The study will assess whether ENRAGED FLAIR provides image quality and MS lesion visualization comparable to standard MRI. If successful, this technique may help shorten future MRI examinations for patients with multiple sclerosis while preserving clinically useful image information.

ENRAGED FLAIR MRI

ENRAGED FLAIR is a combined MRI acquisition designed to generate both 3D T2-FLAIR and T1-weighted brain images from a single sequence. The additional sequence is acquired during the same clinical MRI examination and does not involve extra contrast agent or an additional study visit.
