Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a powerful quantitative technique with the potential to detect in vivo microscopic abnormalities of brain tissue. It has been successfully applied to study the occult damage in multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica (NMO), providing information otherwise inaccessible on the pathological substrates. DTI has also been used to differentiate these two diseases. Several image-analysis approaches have been employed, including region of interest, histogram, and tractography. This review focuses on the use of DTI to investigate MS and NMO.
