✦ Synopsis

This volume in the distinguished Advances in Neurology series focuses on multiple sclerosis and related demyelinating diseases. An international group of experts examines recent developments in diagnosis, treatment, and other aspects of clinical management. The latest cutting-edge research on the causes and mechanisms of these diseases is also discussed.

Coverage includes detailed discussions on new diagnostic methods and the role of neuroimaging in diagnosis. Chapters present evidence-based treatment protocols and review current clinical testing of new therapies.
