EMISEP : Early Spinal Cord Lesions and Late Disability in Relapsing Remitting Multiple Sclerosis Patients
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the prognostic value of early focal lesions and early diffuse lesions on ambulatory disability progression within 5 years after clinical onset.

Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Patients with multiple sclerosis 80 patients / clinical Follow-up at M0, M6, M12, M18, M24, M30, M36, M42, M48, M54 and M60 / spinal cord MRI follow-up at M0, M12, M24, M36 and M60 / brain MRI follow-up at M0, M12, M24, M36 and M60 |
Device: spinal cord MRI follow-up
Evaluation : focal lesions (number, volume, localisation), atrophy, parameters from Diffusion Tensor Imaging and parameters from Magnetization Transfer Ratio
Other: clinical follow-up
Relapses, treatments, global disability,walking performance, upper limbs motor performance, sphincter disturbances and walking difficulty
Other: brain MRI follow-up

Experimental: Healthy volunteers 20 healthy volunteers (stability of spinal cord imaging) / spinal cord MRI follow-up at M0 and M24 |
Device: spinal cord MRI follow-up
Evaluation : focal lesions (number, volume, localisation), atrophy, parameters from Diffusion Tensor Imaging and parameters from Magnetization Transfer Ratio
