BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Our aims were the following: 1) to compare multicontrast
cortical lesion detection using 3T and 7T MR imaging, 2) to compare cortical lesion type …

PURPOSE: To prospectively compare the depiction of intracortical lesions by using multislab
three-dimensional (3D) double inversion-recovery (DIR), multislab 3D fluid-attenuated …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Conventional imaging of ex-vivo brain at 1.5 T in multiple
sclerosis (MS) detects only a small fraction of the gray matter cerebral cortical lesions that …

Cortical lesions are prevalent in multiple sclerosis but are poorly detected using MRI. The
double inversion recovery (DIR) sequence is increasingly used to explore the clinical …

Abstract Objectives Seven-Tesla MRI demonstrated new pathological features of multiple
sclerosis (MS) using T2*-weighted sequences. However, a clinical MRI protocol at 7 T has …

The relevance of cortical grey matter pathology in multiple sclerosis has become
increasingly recognized over the past decade. Unfortunately, a large part of cortical lesions …

Background Cortical lesions account for a larger proportion of brain demyelination than
white matter (WM) lesions. They are often missed on conventional MRI. Recently studies …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Magnetization-transfer imaging is a technique that could
provide indirect evidence of the characteristics of multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions. The …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: 7T MR imaging has led to improved detection and
classification of cortical MS lesions, mainly based on T2*-weighted gradient-echo …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Cortical lesions are common and often extensive in
multiple sclerosis but are difficult to visualize by MRI, leaving important questions about their …
