Have you ever seen terms like lesions or enhancing spots on your MRI report and wondered what they mean?

In Multiple Sclerosis, MRI scans show areas of inflammation or damage in the brain each with its own meaning about how active the disease is

Active inflammation appears as bright ‘enhancing’ spots

Older, healed areas may look darker, called black holes — signs of previous damage

Doctors use these patterns to see if the disease is active, stable, or progressing and to plan the best treatment
