Multiple Sclerosis Part 1 : Essentials and the McDonald Criteria

Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS) characterized by relapsing-remitting or progressive neurologic symptoms and focal white matter lesions. The hallmark of the disease is the dissemination of CNS lesions in space and time, which is defined by the McDonald criteria. MRI is an essential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for MS which can evaluate the entire CNS. MS mimics must be excluded before a diagnosis of MS is made.
