Definición

  • Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, named for focal scars in the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerve. Myelin insulates the impulse-transmitting extensions (axons) from nerve cells and promotes fast transmission of electrical impulses. [Source: Encyclopedia of Disability; Multiple Sclerosis]
