In vivo detection of damage in multiple sclerosis cortex and cortical lesions using NODDI

Paolo Preziosa et al.

Summary: This study characterized microstructural abnormalities in multiple sclerosis (MS) cortex using neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging (NODDI). Results showed significant neurite loss in MS normal-appearing (NA) cortex and further neurite density reduction in cortical lesions (CLs), indicating a simplification of neurite complexity. NODDI is relevant for investigating the heterogeneous pathology of the MS cortex in vivo.

Summary: With the rapid increase in aging societies worldwide, there has been a growing prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases, highlighting the urgent need for biomarkers to enable early intervention. Diffusion MRI is a promising tool for inferring microstructural characteristics of the brain, and new technologies are being developed to overcome the limitations of diffusion tensor imaging.
