A few days ago, researchers at the University of British Columbia (UBC) in Canada developed a new type of MRI technology that can detect more subtle multiple sclerosis and provide an updated method for treatment. Related research papers were published in the recently published "Neurology" journal.

Multiple sclerosis occurs when human immune cells attack myelin, which is the barrier layer that protects nerve fibers, causing myelin to collapse and prevent electrical signals between neurons. Symptoms include numbness, weakness, blindness, and tremors , Dizziness and fatigue.

Historically, analyzing the number of echoes per second of MRI has been considered as a sensitive method to determine changes in human tissue structure, but it is very difficult to calculate the available graphics. The new technology analyzes the frequency of the electromagnetic waves acquired by the MRI scanner instead of analyzing the waveform in the past. UBC researchers and outpatient doctors in the affiliated hospital used new and old equipment to scan once a month for half a year, and analyzed the frequency of MRI brain scans of 20 patients. Once the tissue damage of myelin occurs, the traditional MRI scanner will show that the new frequency-based MRI scan found the condition two months before the traditional scanner, accurately analyzed the tissue damage area, and found that the frequency has changed, that is, in advance Found tissue damage.

The researchers believe that because the new MRI technology is more sensitive to lesions, more detailed research can be carried out, such as the development of new drugs and the determination of treatment plans earlier, to slow down or even prevent the collapse of myelin.
