In the latest revision to McDonald diagnostic criteria for multiple sclerosis (MS), the authors commented that the Asian neurological community will determine whether the Criteria can be generalized to their population and how modifications to the Criteria will make them more appropriate in the Asian population [1]. In 2006, a group of leading Asian neurologists with an interest in MS proposed some modifications to the McDonald criteria for Asians with MS (see Table 1) [2]. The proposal was… CONTINUE READING
