Abstract

• Conventional and advanced MR techniques may aid in the diagnosis of motor neuron disease.• Iron-sensitive MR imaging of the primary motor cortex may reveal changes to help differentiate hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) from UMM predominant amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (UMN-ALS) and primary lateral sclerosis (PLS).• Additional research in this area is necessary.
