| الوصف: | Background. There is a rising concern about multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions that occur in the cortical gray matter (GM), owing to its direct relationship with the disability and cognition dysfunction that occur during the MS course. Two magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences that aid in the precise identification of these lesions are the Double Inversion Recovery (DIR) and Fluid Attenuation Inversion Recovery (FLAIR) sequences. Objective. To study the importance of the DIR for brain lesion detection and the various cortical subtypes distinction in MS-diagnosed patients and its correlations to the level of patient disability by comparing it to FLAIR. Patients and Methods: Thirty MS patients participated in this retrospective cross-sectional study, who had been previously diagnosed with MS and were routinely followed up at the Radiology Department at Ain-Shams University. Results. Comparing the DIR sequence to FLAIR, the overall MS lesion detection enhanced by 8% (p |
