Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
Magnetic resonance image (MRI) scanning helps in the detailed study of the presence of any kind of abnormalities in the brain and spinal cord areas. The MRI scans show the areas of the lesions arising due to multiple sclerosis in the brain and spinal cord. To get the MRI scan, the doctor injects an intravenous injection of contrast material in order to highlight the lesions. The presence of lesions in the scans clearly indicates that the multiple sclerosis is in an active phase in your body.
