NCT03608605

Brief Summary

We aim to evaluate the role of conventional and advanced MRI sequences in:

  1. 1.Establishing the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis and differentiate it from its mimics.
  2. 2.Predict the prognosis and evaluate the treatment response in the first year of patients with multiple sclerosis.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • role of advanced MRI sequences in establishing the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis(MS)

    calculating the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and dual inversion recovery(DIR) in differentiating MS from its mimics

    baseline

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • follow up of MS patients after one year of treatment

    one year

Interventions

MRIDEVICE

magnetic resonance imaging with advanced sequences including tractography,volumetry and inversion recovery
