Ultra-high field MRI implicates long COVID in brainstem damage
Researchers have used 7T MRI to demonstrate that former COVID-19 inpatients are susceptible to persistent brainstem abnormalities associated with long-haul COVID symptoms.
Rua and co-authors note the observed brainstem changes were more pronounced in patients with longer hospital stays, higher COVID severity, more prominent inflammatory responses and worse functional outcomes.
