Researchers from UC San Francisco have developed a machine learning algorithm to enhance 3T MRIs by synthesizing 7T-like images that approximate real 7T MRIs. Their model enhanced pathological tissue with more fidelity for clinical insights and represents a new step toward evaluating clinical applications of synthetic 7T MRI models.

Stem Cell Transplants May Delay Disability Longer than Some MS Medications
In people with active secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (MS), hematopoietic stem cell transplants may delay disability longer than some other MS medications, according to a study published in the December 21, 2022, online issue of Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology. The study involved autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplants, which use healthy blood stem cells from a person’s own body to replace diseased cells.
UCLA researchers identify model for studying treatments targeting MS progression
This model can be used by researchers to discover targets for treatments that improve walking, cognitive, coordination and visual disabilities in MS.
Does Multiple Sclerosis Play a Role in Cancer Screening and Diagnosis?
Women with multiple sclerosis (MS) are less likely to have breast cancers detected through cancer screenings than women without MS, according to new research published in the April 27, 2022, online issue of Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology. Conversely, researchers also found that people with MS are more likely to have colorectal cancers detected at an early stage than those without MS.
