AJNR 16:259-264, Tas,M.W.,et al, 1995
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
To determine whether gadolinium can improve the sensitivity and specificity of MR imaging for the initial diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. Patients(n=57)with neurologic symptoms suggesting multiple sclerosis were studied prospectively.MR imaging consisted of T2-weighted and gadolinium- enhanced T1-weighted spin-echo images.Gadolinium enhancement increases the specificity of MR imaging in the early diagnosis of multiple sclerosis.
