Study reveals chronic inflammation signaling brain atrophy in children with MS: What parents need to know

New research reveals a strong link between persistent brain inflammation and early brain shrinkage in children with MS. These "hot spots" of inflammation, visible on advanced MRIs, can silently damage brain tissue crucial for thinking and memory, even before physical symptoms appear. Early detection and intervention are vital for protecting developing young brains.
