Abstract Details

Intrinsic Damage to the Cerebellar Peduncles Is Associated to Multiple Sclerosis Clinical Disability
MS and Related Diseases
P06 - (-)
114
BACKGROUND: The cerebellum and CP are regions frequently affected by MS.
DESIGN/METHODS: Brain dual-echo and DT MRI sequences were collected from 172 MS patients and 46 matched healthy controls (HC). The EDSS score, degree of impairment of different EDSS FS and Ambulation Index (AI) were rated. Patients were dichotomized using CFS and BFS (impaired: FS?1, unimpaired: FS=0), EDSS (ambulatory impaired: EDSS?4.0, fully ambulatory: EDSS<4.0) and AI (impaired: AI?1, unimpaired: AI=0). Using DT MRI tractography, probability maps of the SCP and MCP were produced. Voxel-wise analysis was used to assess the topographical distribution of damage along these tracts.
RESULTS: Compared to HC, MS patients showed increased mean (MD), axial (AD), radial (RD) diffusivity and decreased fractional anisotropy (FA) of both tracts. Diffusivity abnormalities were more pronounced in patients with EDSS?4.0, CFS?1, BFS?1 and AI?1 than those without. Patients with EDSS?4.0 had a higher probability of having T2 lesions in the MCP bilaterally, partially overlapping with diffusivity abnormalities, patients with BFS?1 had a higher probability of having T2 lesions in one small cluster in the left SCP, while no differences were found for the other comparisons.
CONCLUSIONS: In MS, the assessment of MCP and SCP damage, in terms of local inflammation (T2 focal lesions) and diffuse normal appearing white matter tract injury (most probably due to Wallerian degeneration), contributes to explain global clinical impairment as well as impairment at single FS.
