Multimodal magnetic resonance imaging in relation to cognitive impairment in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder

Abstract Cognitive impairment (CI) is reported in 29–57% of patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). However, the pathophysiology underlying CI in NMOSD is poorly understood. The present study aims to investigate the predictive values of various conventional and quantitative MRI...
