Background and purpose: To assess the normal appearing white and grey matter changes in clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) patients and their correlations if present to neurocognitive tasks. Those changes can be revealed by magnetization transfer imaging (MTI) and Diffusion-tensor magnetic imaging (DTI) technique.
