Patterns of Disease Activity in Multiple Sclerosis:Clinical and Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study
BMJ 300:631-634, Thompson,A.J.,et al, 1990
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
No relation was found between the degree of clinical disability and the extent of abnormality shown by magnetic resonance imaging:patients with clinically benign disease often had extensive abnormalities and those with primary progressive disease had surprisingly few lesions.Though magnetic resonance imaging increases knowledge of the disease process in multiple sclerosis and is invaluable in diagnosis,it is not helpful in predicting disability in individual patients.
