Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Brain temperature was measured using diffusion-weighted imaging-based MR thermometry of the lateral ventricles. Our investigation revealed that brain temperature was significantly lower in MS patients (n=13) than in healthy controls (n=13). This probably represents decreased brain metabolism in MS patients. We also measured brain temperature of 20 healthy female volunteers (21.3-38.8 years of age) during both follicular and luteal phases, and found that brain temperature was significantly higher in luteal phase than in follicular phase.
