Abstract

Studies on tumefactive brain lesions in myelin-oligodendrocyte-glycoprotein-IgG-associated disease (MOGAD) are lacking. We sought to characterize the frequency, clinical, laboratory, and MRI features of these lesions in MOGAD and compare them to multiple sclerosis (MS) and aquaporin-4-IgG-positive-neuromyelitis-optica-spectrum-disorder (AQP4+NMOSD).
