Excerpts

- the revised MS-diagnostic criteria, which are currently under development, will likely remove the requirement for MS attacks (either symptomatic or radiographic) to be recurrent.

- this suggests that, over their entire lifetime, of pathologically-verified MS cases do not experience clinical symptoms sufficient to bring them to medical attention

- the revised MS-diagnostic criteria (under development) will likely make an MS-diagnosis possible, even in the absence of any symptoms whatsoever.
