研究概览

简要总结

This study will evaluate the effects of Aubagio on changes in the brain using MRI.

详细描述

Patients who take Aubagio will have an MRI, eye test, have blood taken, and complete a questionnaire on environmental risk factors to evaluate changes in the brain and on disease progression. A healthy control group will also complete the same testing regimen.
