MRI-detectable cortical lesions in the cerebellum and their clinical relevance in multiple sclerosis

Conclusions:
CL are detected by PSIR in the cerebellum of the majority of MS patients, are more than WML, increase with disease progression and strongly correlate with the cerebellar EDSS. Thus, the observation of CL in the cerebellum of MS at clinical onset might be useful for prognostic and therapeutic aims.
