MRI & pathology in MS
Professor David Miller and Professor Tarek Yousry
Our work involves collaboration with the MS Society UK Tissue Bank at Imperial College (Professor Richard Reynolds) and the Division of Neuropathology, at the ION (Professor Sebastian Brandner) and uses a stereotactic co registration system developed in-house. There is a particular interest in developing an imaging marker for remyelination that could be used in clinical trials in MS and our studies suggest that the MTR may be one such measure.
