Myelin water fraction (MWF) deficits as measured by myelin water imaging (MWI) have been related to worse motor function in persons with multiple sclerosis (PwMS). However, it is unknown if measures from MWI metrics in motor areas relate to fall risk measures in PwMS. The objective of this study was to examine the relationship between MWI measures in motor areas to performance on clinical measures of fall risk and disability in PwMS.
