P 28 Voxel-based Morphometry (VBM) subcortical white matter changes correlate with disease progression in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive, multisystemic disorder.Signs of lower motor neurone involvement are readily detectable but the involvement of the upper motor neurone is elusive.Hence, we must identify the extent and development of ALS related changes in the brain in different subtypes of ALS to facilitate an early diagnosis and stratification for clinical trials.Previous studies applying Voxel-based morphometry (VBM) provided inconsistent results.
