ETH Zurich researchers have developed a new method of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the early detection and better monitoring of multiple sclerosis (MS). The method maps the myelin sheaths in ...

"We plan to analyze these MRI structural measures longitudinally to determine if changes in brain volumes or lesion burden over time contribute to fatigue trajectories. More broadly, we might ...

Scientists have discovered a groundbreaking treatment that could stop the progression of multiple sclerosis (MS) in its tracks. A team of international researchers published their findings Monday in ...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a debilitating disease with few treatment options. But in a new clinical trial, scientists have tested a promising new therapy involving injections of stem cells, which ...

Research published this week describes a promising start to using stem cell therapy for multiple sclerosis. In a small Phase I trial, patients who had stem cells directly injected into their brain ...

Experts from the University of Nottingham have proven that multiple sclerosis (MS) can successfully be diagnosed using an MRI scan, meaning patients no longer need to undergo a painful lumbar puncture ...

A trial involving researchers at the University of Colorado found it can be safe to transplant stem cells into the brains of people with at least one disabling illness, but the science has a long way ...

"In terms of association with climate, our results suggest a relationship between enhancing lesions and tropical nights, a variable indicating extreme temperatures, which had not been previously ...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological disease that usually leads to permanent disabilities. It affects about 2.9 million people worldwide, and about 15,000 in Switzerland alone. One key feature of ...

Improved MRI scans of the myelin sheaths in the brain should allow multiple sclerosis to be detected at an early stage. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological disease that usually leads to ...
