How can they tell clear progression to SPMS?

Does neuronal death show up on MRI's?

====

Mechanistically it seems to me that any of the RRMS drugs that work well (Tysabri is best) have a chance of delaying the onset of SPMS as they reduce the assault on the myelin and neurons. The reduction in the damage gives the body a chance for repair of the myelin. Tysabri has the best chance of delaying or reducing SPMS. (Of course, I don't have a science or medical background and guess a lot.)

It is astonishing what foolish things one can temporarily believe if one thinks too long alone ... where it is often impossible to bring one's ideas to a conclusive test either formal or experimental. J.M. Keynes
