- Abstract
The article discusses a study which investigates the magnetic resonance imaging patterns of abnormalities of gray matter (GM) and white matter (WM) in patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD). Topics include assessing the correlation of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and percalcarine cortex thickness, the use of methods such as voxel-based morphometry and diffusion-tensor imaging (DTI) analyses, and the correlation of GM atrophy with disease duration.
