MRI Characteristics of the MLF in MS Patients with Chronic Internuclear Ophthalmoparesis
Neurol 57:762-768, Frohman,E.M.,et al, 2001
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
All patients studied had evidence of an MLF lesion hyperintensity on PDI, whereas T2-weighted imaging and FLAIR imaging showed these lesions in 88% and 48% of patients, respectively. With PDL dorsomedial tegmentum lesions were seen in the pon s in 93% of patients and in the midbrain of 66% of patients. Lesions were observed at both locations in 59% of patients. One patient had an MLF lesion with a corresponding T1 hypointensity. PDI best shows the MLF lesion in patients with MS and INO.
