Quantitative study of corticospinal tract in patients with multiple sclerosis using diffusion tensor tractography / 中华放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

0.05). The average FA of the corticospinal tracts (0.472?0.037) of RRMS group was significantly lower than that of normal control group (0.497?0.028) (P0.05). The average FA of the corticospinal tracts correlated with EDSS (r=-0.193, P0.05). Conclusion The average FA of the corticospinal tracts of RRMS patients is significantly abnormal and this index may be suitable in evaluating the functional status of the cerebral type of RRMS patients.
