In this study anatomical imaging and DTI is used to confirm in vivo the expected demyelination in a novel myelin basic protein mutant that spontaneously developed in our colony. Anatomical imaging and T2 relaxometry and DTI readouts reflect typical changes as also seen in other demyelination models such as the Shiverer mice.
