Neurologist,  's  Response
Hello,

I have noted your symptoms and MRI brain findings. Based on that, we need to exclude multiple sclerosis. Please get the following additional tests done:

1. MRI spine,

2. Visual evoked potential

3. Lumbar puncture to exclude oligoclonal bands. We also need to exclude collagen vascular disease and vasculitis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Sudhir Kumar, Neurologist
