Fig. 3From: Relation of serum resistin to subclinical atherosclerosis in multiple sclerosisIllustrated case of a 42 female patient known to have multiple sclerosis. MRI. (A) Axial T1. (B) Axial T2 WI at the same level. (C) Axial FLAIR in a lower level. (D) Sagittal FLAIR shows multiple periventricular abnormal low T1, high T2 and FLAIR signal foci with a characteristic perpendicular alignment to the ventricle (best seen on sagittal view). E Gray-scale carotid doppler ultrasound exam at the right side distal carotid artery 1.5 cm from the bifurcation revealed an irregular parallel alignment of the vessel wall with early intimal media complex hyperplasia with lost hypo-echoic component revealing subclinical atherosclerotic changesBack to article page
