MS mystery: do some relapses hide from MRI scans?
NCT ID NCT07545889
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether people with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) can have a relapse—new or worsening symptoms—without any visible inflammation on an MRI scan. Researchers will follow 136 adults who are having a suspected relapse, performing early brain and spinal MRIs to check for active lesions. The goal is to better understand these 'invisible' relapses, improve diagnosis, and avoid unnecessary treatments. Participants will also have follow-up visits at 6 months to track their recovery and quality of life.
