Multiple Sclerosis: Monitoring Disease Activity and Progression
Keyword(s):
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory and degenerative disorder of the central nervous system. Measuring disease activity and progression are an integral part of the management of the disorder. A number of different approaches, including clinical measures, imaging metrics, and blood/cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers have been investigated for their utility in monitoring disease activity and progression. Each of these different approaches has certain advantages, as well as limitations, and this chapter provides an overview of these different assessment strategies.
