چکیده
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging has been used to visualise a localised area of demyelination in the dorsal pons of a patient who presented with an unusual disorder of eye movements, namely, the one-and-a-half syndrome. Judged clinically the patient made a nearly complete recovery, but little change was apparent in the NMR image six months later.

CLINICAL CORRELATIONS BETWEEN AUDITORY BRAIN STEM RESPONSE AND MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING IN PATIENTS WITH DEFINITE MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS
In an attempt to assess objectively the integrity of the auditory pathways in 30 patients with definite multiple sclerosis (MS), an audiometric evaluation was performed and auditory brainstem responses (ABRs) were obtained. Stressing the auditory system by increasing the stimulation rate showed some enhancement in the identification of MS. 24 (RO%) patients had an abnormal ABR along with c...
متن کاملMultiple Sclerosis Lesions Segmentation in Magnetic Resonance Imaging using Ensemble Support Vector Machine (ESVM)
Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) syndrome is a type of Immune-Mediated disorder in the central nervous system (CNS) which destroys myelin sheaths, and results in plaque (lesion) formation in the brain. From the clinical point of view, investigating and monitoring information such as position, volume, number, and changes of these plaques are integral parts of the controlling process this dise...
