New MRI breakthrough could spot hidden optic nerve damage before vision loss
Standard MRI scans can show the structure of the brain and eye sockets, but they cannot reveal subtle damage to the microscopic fibres of the optic nerve - changes that may appear before irreversible vision loss. Polish researchers have developed a new method of analysing MRI images that could help doctors detect this hidden damage earlier and make more informed treatment decisions.
