Figure MRI findings in a patient with multiple sclerosis after alemtuzumab treatment Flair sequences and corresponding contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images at the time of medication switch to alemtuzumab (A, E). Follow-up MRI performed 5 months later, showing multiple ring-enhancing lesions (B, F). Lesion restitution after plasma exchange, immunoadsorption, and rituximab initiation (C, G). Further improvement was noticeable 5 months after rituximab treatment (D, H).
