Correlation of MRI lesions with visual psychophysical deficit in secondary progressive multiple sclerosis

The aim of this work was, first, to clarify the nature of the relationship between the sensory deficit in the demyelinated visual pathway and morphological changes revealed by MRI and, secondly, to test whether there was a preferential effect of demyelination for either the magnocellular or parvocel...
