摘要
A patient was followed after the new onset of hemiparesis from relapse of MS with serial MR spectroscopy and functional MRI. The association of clinical improvement with recovery of N-acetylaspartate, a marker of neuronal integrity, and progressive reduction of abnormally large functional MRI cortical activation with movement demonstrates that dynamic reorganization of the motor cortex accompanies remission of MS.
