 L. Tanenbaum is a speaker for GE Healthcare

 Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating condition associated with significant neurological disability  Supportive imaging findings require display of lesions distributed in space and time  Etiology remains unknown  MR imaging plays a key role in initial diagnosis & monitoring patient progress & response to treatment

 Increased utilization of MRI due to increased incidence and changing geographic patterns of disease 1  Increased requirement for imaging to guide treatment decisions 2  T2 and T2 FLAIR are current mainstays of MRI protocols for MS

 A novel 3D MPRAGE sequence incorporates an additional inversion pulse to null white matter (WMn)  T1 weighted contrast despite white CSF  Suppression of white matter signal highlights WM pathology  Prospective motion correction (PROMO) MPRAGE

 To assess the image quality and added value of WMn-MPRAGE in comparison to conventional techniques in MR imaging of multiple sclerosis MPRAGE FLAIRT2 T1

 17 MS patients (9 male, 8 female, median age 43 years) with previously identified MS lesions were included in this study  Patients were prospectively scanned with WMn- MPRAGE in addition to conventional imaging sequences on a clinical 3T MR scanner.  Conventional sequences included: T2 FLAIR, T2 & T1 sequences

MPRAGE FLAIR T2T1 Cortical lesion are more prominently seen on MPRAGE and FLAIR than on T2 and T1- weighted images.

MPRAGE FLAIR T2T1 Four discrete lesion can be seen in the MPRAGE and FLAIR images and only 3 in the T2 WI. No discrete lesions are appreciated on the T1 WI at this level.

 MPRAGE was significantly better than T2 and T1 on the assessment of MS lesions located in the centrum semiovale and corona radiata.  MPRAGE was significantly better than T1 in the evaluation of MS lesions at the level of the 3 rd ventricle.  MPRAGE was significantly better in the assessment of posterior fossa lesions in comparison to all standard sequences.

 WMn-MPRAGE is a practical technique providing novel image contrast of value in evaluation of MS brain lesions, specially in the assessment of posterior fossa lesions.  WMn-MPRAGE should be considered for routine use in the evaluation of patients with known or suspected MS
