Abstract

Prolonged T-1 and/or T-2 relaxation times (RT) in the normal appearing white matter (NAWM) of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) have been attributed either to a diffuse abnormality, or to ''small lesions'' undetected by visual inspection of conventional MR images. In a comparison of brain slices from five MS patients and five healthy control subjects, we have confirmed that the average T-1 and T-2 RTs obtained from NAWM in patients with MS are significantly prolonged (p
