Table 5.

Mean differences between MS-converters and non-converters (as estimated across time points by a linear mixed model) are given for the different WM regions in CIS and their associated p-values for MWF and DVF. In addition the mean differences for GM and WM volumes were tested. Significance level was marked with * p< 0.05.
