Description Patients with optic neuritis presenting initially to general practitioners are often imaged with a routine brain MRI, which is suboptimal for optic nerve assessment. Because of the reduced sensitivity of MRI in detecting this typically self-limiting disease beyond 30 days after symptom onset, Neuro-ophthalmologists often rely upon the initial brain MRI to confirm the diagnosis.(1-3)Our aim was to assess if image post-processing could facilitate the detection of optic neuritis on routine brain MRI.
