We Are Here For You
The diagnosis of multiple sclerosis can be a difficult process for the individual who is experiencing unusual and worrisome symptoms — other diseases have similar warning signs, and early symptoms can be mild, non-specific and sporadic. To date, there is no definitive single laboratory test to confirm MS, thus a confirmed diagnosis can only be made through a careful medical history, a detailed neurological examination, MRI imaging and often a test of spinal fluid and a host of blood tests to exclude other possible causes of the neurological symptoms.
As one of the largest clinical and research MS centers in the world, we focus on all aspects of the disease — from diagnosis and life-long quality clinical care to cutting edge clinical trials, brain imaging and laboratory research.
