New 3D Brain Map May Help in Disease Management: Study

A team of researchers has created a three-dimensional (3D) map of the lymphatic vessels that drain the brain, and demonstrated that these vessels are organized similarly in mice and in humans. The researchers propose measuring these vessels using MRI scans could “allow longitudinal imaging of disease progression that may be…

7T MRI Reveals New Insights into Some RRMS Features

With the help of 7 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), investigators discovered that leptomeningeal enhancement ā€” a radiographic finding indicative of brain inflammation ā€” is more common than previously thought in people with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosisĀ (RRMS), and is tied to lesions in specific regions of the brain.
