Abstract
T1 hypointensities are lesions that are hypointense on moderately T1-weighted conventional spin-echo sequences and serve as markers of matrix destruction and axonal loss. They correlate better with clinical disability than T2-weighted images, are found in patients with progressive multiple sclerosis, and can be used as surrogate outcome measures in treatment trials.Entities:
