Abstract
Strengths and Limitations of this Study: We will use MS as a model to study how white matter disease contributes to both the pathophysiology of depression in MS and to general network mechanisms of depression.We will leverage research-grade 3-tesla (3T) MRIs acquired as part of routine MS care and maximize scalability by using the Method for Inter-Modal Segmentation Analysis (MIMoSA) for automated white matter lesion segmentation.Our study will include participants with medical comorbidities, creating a more representative population and more broadly applicable results.We will obtain detailed clinical and cognitive assessments from each participant to evaluate the inter-relationship of mood symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and cognitive deficits, and relate them to white matter disease.This is a single-center study.
