Baló’s concentric sclerosis is immunologically distinct from multiple sclerosis: results from retrospective analysis of almost 150 lumbar punctures [PDF]
Background: Baló’s concentric sclerosis (BCS) is a rare inflammatory demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system characterised by concentric layers of demyelination.

Tumefactive multiple sclerosis masquerade as a central nervous system tumor: a case report
Introduction: Tumefactive multiple sclerosis is a demyelinating disorder that appears tumor-like on MRI. To most physicians, diagnosing tumefactive MS by applying clinical, radiological, or laboratory examination like Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis,

Longitudinal Brain Atrophy Patterns in Early MOG-Antibody Associated Disease and Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody‐associated disease can manifest as a relapsing or monophasic condition. Although several MRI studies have shown evident gray and white matter atrophy compared to healthy controls, little is known about regional brain volume dynamics in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody ...

7 Tesla MRI of Balo's concentric sclerosis versus multiple sclerosis lesions [PDF]
Background: Baló’s concentric sclerosis (BCS) is a rare condition characterized by concentrically layered white matter lesions. While its pathogenesis is unknown, hypoxia-induced tissue injury and chemotactic stimuli have been proposed as potential ...
