Abstract: In multiple sclerosis (MS), iron rim lesions (IRLs) are characterized by progressive tissue matrix damage. Therefore, early identification could represent an interesting target for therapeutic intervention to minimize evolving tissue damage. The aim of this… read more here.

Abstract: In multiple sclerosis (MS), iron rim lesions (IRLs) are characterized by pronounced tissue matrix damage. The T1/T2‐weighted (T1/T2w) ratio represents a postprocessing MRI approach to investigate tissue integrity, but studies investigating spinal cord pathology are… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2022.928582
Abstract: Background: Iron rim lesions (IRLs) represent chronic lesion activity and are associated with a more severe disease course in multiple sclerosis (MS). How the iron rims around the lesions arise in patients with MS (pwMS),… read more here.
