Fig. 5From: Differentiating multiple sclerosis from cerebral small vessel disease using diffusion tensor imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy on normally appearing thalamiA 42-year-old male patient complaining of RRMS, image A (axial FLAIR, axial and coronal T2) showing periventricular white matter (blue arrow) & bilateral middle cerebellar peduncles (black arrow)T2 /FLAIR hyperintense lesions and normal appearing thalami (red arrow). Thalamic DTI ROI placement in colored FA images B and ADC images C. The table below shows thalamic FA value of 288 for the right and 296 for the left, ADC value 766 × 10–6 mm2/s for the right thalamus and 748 × 10–6 mm2/s for the left oneBack to article page
