Abstract
Together with the fast development of knowledge about the etiopathogenesis and therapy of multiple sclerosis (MS), diagnostic imaging of this entity is changing as well. Simultaneously, due to the necessity of regular follow-up of the MS treatment with magnetic resonance (MR), there is a growing need of standarization of MR studies in MS patients. This article describes the main issues of newly introduced imaging criteria of MS patients in Poland.
