A study using wearable scanning technology has revealed how brain function differs in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). It is the first study to use this newly developed technology in MS and demonstrates its potential for studying neurological disease.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the brain and spinal cord. It occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks and damages myelin, a protective fatty substance that insulates nerve fibers. This damage disrupts the electrical signals traveling along the nerves, leading to a wide range of neurological symptoms including numbness, vision problems, balance issues, and fatigue.
Scientists from the University of Nottingham’s School of Physics and Astronomy and School of Medicine and Health Sciences used a newly...
