Epilepsy and associated mortality in patients with multiple sclerosis (2018)
Journal Article
Chou, I. J., Kuo, C. F., Tanasescu, R., Tench, C. R., Tiley, C. G., Constantinescu, C. S., & Whitehouse, W. P. (2018). Epilepsy and associated mortality in patients with multiple sclerosis. European Journal of Neurology, 26(2), 342-e23. https://doi.org/10.1111/ene.13821

Background and purpose: We aimed to determine the prevalence of epilepsy in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) at diagnosis, the risk of developing epilepsy after the diagnosis of MS and the relative risk of mortality associated with epilepsy. Me... Read More about Epilepsy and associated mortality in patients with multiple sclerosis.

Seven-Tesla magnetization transfer imaging to detect multiple sclerosis white matter lesions (2017)
Journal Article
Chou, I., Lim, S., Tanasescu, R., Al-Radaideh, A., Mougin, O. E., Tench, C. R., …Constantinescu, C. S. (in press). Seven-Tesla magnetization transfer imaging to detect multiple sclerosis white matter lesions. Journal of Neuroimaging, https://doi.org/10.1111/jon.12474

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) imaging at 3 Tesla (T) field strength is the most sensitive modality for detecting white matter lesions in multiple sclerosis. While 7T FLAIR is effective in detecting cortical lesio... Read More about Seven-Tesla magnetization transfer imaging to detect multiple sclerosis white matter lesions.

Pediatric multiple sclerosis: update on diagnostic criteria, imaging, histopathology and treatment choices (2016)
Journal Article
Chou, I., Wang, H., Whitehouse, W. P., & Constantinescu, C. S. (in press). Pediatric multiple sclerosis: update on diagnostic criteria, imaging, histopathology and treatment choices. Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 16(7), https://doi.org/10.1007/s11910-016-0663-4

Pediatric multiple sclerosis (MS) represents less than 5% of the MS population, but patients with pediatric-onset disease reach permanent disability at a younger age than adult onset patients. Accurate diagnosis at presentation and optimal long-term... Read More about Pediatric multiple sclerosis: update on diagnostic criteria, imaging, histopathology and treatment choices.
