Cortical lesions in multiple sclerosis (MS) are notoriously difficult to visualize with standard MR imaging (MRI) techniques. However, the use of higher field-strengths with intrinsically higher signal-to-noise, which can partly be used to increase spatial resolution, may improve cortical lesion detection. Therefore, in this post mortem study, the sensitivity of high field-strength MRI (4.7 T) for cortical lesions was investigated, and compared to that of standard field-strength (1.5 T).
