Differentiating axonal loss and demyelination in chronic MS lesions: A novel approach using single streamline diffusivity analysis.

We describe a new single-streamline based approach to analyse diffusivity within chronic MS lesions. We used the proposed method to examine diffusivity profiles in 30 patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis and observed a significant increase of both RD and AD within the lesion core (0.38+/-0.09...
