New method for interpreting MRI scans may speed up ALS diagnosis

Edited by: Anna 🎨 Krasko

Swedish experts have developed a new method for interpreting MRI scans. This method could lead to faster diagnoses of neurological diseases like ALS. The approach focuses on identifying changes in the brain area that controls movement.

Researchers at the Karolinska Institute have linked these changes to early signs of ALS. Torsten Gabrielsson from Karlstad, who suffers from ALS, believes an earlier diagnosis would have helped him prepare better for the disease. This new interpretation method offers hope for quicker identification and management of such conditions.
