Five-Year Longitudinal Study of Neck Vessel Cross-Sectional Area in Multiple Sclerosis

http://www.ajnr.org/content/early/2018/07/26/ajnr.A5738

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Alterations of neck vessel cross-sectional area in multiple sclerosis have been reported. Our aim was to investigate the evolution of the neck vessel cross-sectional area in patients with MS and healthy controls during 5 years.

CONCLUSIONS: For 5 years, patients with MS showed significant cross-sectional area decrease of all major neck vessels, regardless of the disease course and cardiovascular status.
