Chapter 7 118 Figure 7.2 Course of quantitative parameters over time CIDP MMN Plots of FA, MD, AD, RD, T2 relaxation time (in milliseconds) and fat fraction (in percentage) over time (months) for patients with CIDP (left panels) and MMN (right panels). Every colored line reflects one patient and the course of its quantitative parameter between the first (t 0 ) and second (t 1 ) MRI. MD, AD and RD values are x10 -3 mm 2 /s. Abbreviations: CIDP = chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy; MMN = multifocal motor neuropathy; fractional anisotropy = FA; MD = mean diffusivity; AD = axial diffusivity; RD = radial diffusivity.
