Brain's garbage disposal may be broken in early MS, new MRI study hints

This study looks at whether the brain's natural waste-cleaning system, called the glymphatic system, is not working properly in people with Clinically Isolated Syndrome (CIS), which is often the first sign of Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Researchers will use special MRI scans to compare 30 adults with CIS to healthy volunteers. The goal is to gather early evidence that this system might play a role in MS, which could lead to larger studies on disease progression.
