Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is one of the most important paraclinical tools for the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS), and monitoring of disease progression and treatment response. This article provides clinicians and neuroradiologists caring for children with demyelinating disorders with a suggested standard MR imaging acquisition and reporting protocol, and defines a standard lexicon for lesion features typical of MS in children. As there is considerable overlap between the MR imaging features of pediatric- and adult-onset MS, the recommendations provided herein may be of relevance to radiologists and clinicians caring for adults with multiple sclerosis.
磁共振成像（MR 成像）是多发性硬化症（MS）诊断以及监测疾病进展和治疗反应的最重要的临床辅助工具之一。本文为儿科脱髓鞘疾病的临床医生和神经放射科医生提供了一个建议的标准磁共振成像采集和报告协议，并为儿童 MS 典型病变特征定义了一个标准词汇。由于儿科和成人 MS 的 MR 成像特征有很大的重叠，因此本文提供的建议可能对治疗多发性硬化症的成人的放射科医生和临床医生也有意义。
