Central vein sign and paramagnetic rim lesions in Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis

Written by ParadigMS Foundation on .

New MRI biomarkers are becoming increasingly relevant in the diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Among them, the central vein sign (CVS) and paramagnetic rim lesions (PRLs) can improve diagnostic specificity and help distinguish MS from conditions that may mimic the disease. Šarlota Mesaroš reviews the biological basis, MRI detection and clinical relevance of these two biomarkers, and explains how they are incorporated into the revised McDonald diagnostic criteria. Key Insights from the Lecture: The central vein sign reflects a characteristic pathobiological feature of...

Radiologically Isolated Syndrome: from incidental findings to preclinical Multiple Sclerosis

Written by ParadigMS Foundation on .

Radiologically Isolated Syndrome (RIS) is becoming increasingly relevant as Multiple Sclerosis (MS) diagnosis moves from a purely clinical model toward a more biologically informed framework. In this keynote, Cecilia Rajda explores how the 2024 diagnostic criteria are reshaping the definition of RIS, which patients may now fulfil criteria for MS, and what this means for diagnostic work-up, follow-up, treatment decisions and communication with patients. Key Insights from the Lecture: Multiple Sclerosis may begin biologically before the first clinical symptoms appear. RIS...

MRI and the implications of the new diagnostic criteria

Written by ParadigMS Foundation on .

This webinar provides an expert overview of the revised diagnostic criteria for Multiple Sclerosis (MS), with a specific focus on their implications for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in clinical practice. Building on the 2017 framework, the updated criteria aim to improve diagnostic specificity while enabling earlier and more accurate identification of MS. The session reviews the key changes, including the introduction of new topographies and MRI biomarkers, and discusses how these elements can be integrated into routine clinical workflows. Through expert insights and clinical...
