- Abstract
The article presents a study which investigates the occurrences of spinal cord atrophy and structural variability of the upper cervical cord in early multiple sclerosis (MS). The study measures the upper cervical cord cross-sectional area (UCCA) in patients with clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) and relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS). Results show that the UCCA was reduced in CIS and RRMS patients.
