Our study utilized FAST-T2, a T2-relaxometry technique,
to study myelin water fraction (MWF) within two types of
early MS lesions: enhancing and new non-enhancing T2
lesions. Additionally, we exploited the T2 spectrum and
utilized a novel approach to measure resolving edema
within these lesions types. Enhancing lesions showed a
greater and more variable change in MWF on follow up
scan versus new non-enhancing lesions.
