Central vein sign detected by SWI at 3 T MRI as a discriminator between multiple sclerosis and leukoaraiosis
Background: MRI is an essential tool for diagnosing multiple sclerosis; however, overlap with nonspecific white matter lesions still exists. The central vein sign as detected by MR susceptibility weighted imaging has been proposed to improve the diagnostic accuracy of MRI in MS. Purpose: To assess t...
