[MRI in the study of multiple sclerosis].
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has provided considerable insight into the pathological process and disease activity and progression in multiple sclerosis. MRI has become an important tool for the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, and increasingly for monitoring treatment trial. The growing use of MRI calls for careful consideration in applications so that the technology is not misused. Here we propose a summary of the literature on MRI in application in clinical neurology.
