Here's a good paper: <br />https://www.nature.com/articles/nrneurol.2016.166<br /><br />"Although most studies imaged the supratentorial brain only, central veins have also been demonstrated in lesions located in the thalamus, cerebellum and pons of patients with MS31,34. To our knowledge, no in vivo reports are available on central veins in MS lesions located in the spinal cord, although pathological evidence of this phenomenon exists35." <br /><br />Joanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09439558270245339942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2238276534410758837.post-33511288528538457622018-01-12T05:09:01.791-08:002018-01-12T05:09:01.791-08:00Hi Joan!
