Upper Cervical Cord Area as a Biomarker of Conversion to Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis. [PDF]
Ann Clin Transl NeurolABSTRACT Objective This study assessed whether upper cervical cord area (UCCA) measured on routine brain MRI can serve as a biomarker of conversion to SPMS. Methods This is a single‐center retrospective cohort study of RRMS patients with cross‐sectional and longitudinal analyses of clinical and MRI data. Future SPMS converters were matched by age, sex,
