Real-world detection of paramagnetic rim lesions and their association with disease burden in multiple sclerosis
Our real-world data reinforce evidence that PRLs are linked to more severe disease and demonstrate that PRL identification using manufacturer-reconstructed SWI filtered phase images provides a feasible imaging parameter to assess progression-associated pathology in MS in a standard clinical setting.
