Attributing neuropsychiatric manifestations to SLE is often challenging. Brain white matter lesions are frequent in SLE at MRI, but their diagnostic role is unclear. Here, we assessed whether white matter lesions count, volume and distribution measurement can help in the diagnosis of neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus (NPSLE).

Abstract
Attributing neuropsychiatric manifestations to SLE is often challenging. Brain white matter lesions are frequent in SLE at MRI, but their diagnostic role is unclear. Here, we assessed whether white matter lesions count, volume and distribution measurement can help in the diagnosis of neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus (NPSLE).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
