The chameleon of neuroinflammation: magnetic resonance imaging characteristics of natalizumab-associated progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy

Natalizumab is a monoclonal antibody against α4-integrin approved for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) due to a positive effect on clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) outcome measures. However, one relatively rare but serious side effect of this drug is a higher risk of developing...
