Note:—RRMS indicates relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis; NA, normal-appearing; FA, fractional anisotropy; Dav, directionally averaged diffusion coefficient (×10-3 mm2/s); λ1, axial diffusion coefficient (×10-3mm2/s); λ23, radial diffusion coefficient (×10-3 mm2/s). The group mean ± SD for the diffusion indices (Mann-Whitney U test) is reported in the second through fourth columns. A P value of <.01 is considered statistically significant, whereas a value between .01 and 0.05 is considered to represent a trend. The P values indicated that RRMS has abnormal diffusion in the normal-appearing PYT.
