SWAN-Venule: An Optimized MRI Technique to Detect the Central Vein Sign in MS Plaques [ADULT BRAIN]

CONCLUSIONS: The SWAN-venule technique is an optimized MR imaging sequence for highly sensitive detection of the central vein sign in MS brain lesions. This work will facilitate the validation and integration of the central vein sign to increase the diagnostic certainty of MS and further prevent misdiagnosis in clinical practice.
