Multiple advanced imaging methods for multiple sclerosis (MS) have been in investigation to identify new imaging biomarkers for early disease detection, predicting disease prognosis, and clinical trial endpoints. Multiple techniques probing different aspects of tissue microstructure (ie, advanced diffusion imaging, magnetization transfer, myelin water imaging, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, glymphatic imaging, and perfusion) support the notion that MS is a global disease with microstructural changes evident in normal-appearing white and gray matter. These global changes are likely better predictors of disability compared with lesion load alone. Emerging techniques in glymphatic and molecular imaging may improve understanding of pathophysiology and emerging treatments.
