Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Research on cognitive involvement in multiple sclerosis (MS) is steadily evolving, with different aspects regarding assessment, correlations with clinical evolution and other possible biomarkers, neuroimaging and rehabilitation.
Early cognitive impairment has been recognized as a negative prognostic marker in MS, but we still need to standardize and apply it in clinical practice cognitive evaluation.
The aim of this Special Issue is to focus on cognitive assessment methods in MS, the impact of cognitive impairment on disease evolution, the correlations with other recognized markers of disease (neuroimages, OCT, neurofilaments, etc.), and cognitive rehabilitation, both in adult and in paediatric onset MS.
Dr. Roberta Lanzillo
