Sponsored by the Consortium of MS Centers, an international group of neurologists, radiologists, and imaging scientists with an expertise in MS from North America and Europe met in Newark, NJ, US, January 11-12, 2017 to revise and update the guidelines and indications for standardized brain and spinal cord MRI for MS including attention to the use of gadolinium, based on new data, survey results and expert opinion. The expert taskforce included representatives of the American Academy of Neurology, the Radiological Society of North America, the American Society of Neuroradiology, the National Institutes of Health and the North American Imaging in Multiple Sclerosis Cooperative. The update reviewed the four imaging protocols: routine brain, progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) surveillance, spinal cord, and orbits.
