Cerebellar lesions are often reported in relapsing remitting MS (RRMS), and have been associated with impaired motor function and cognitive status. However, prior research has primarily focused on summary measures of cerebellar involvement (e.g. total lesion load, gray/white matter volume) and not on the effect of lesion load within specific regions of cerebellar white matter. Spatially map the probability of cerebellar white matter lesion occurrence in RRMS and explore the relationship between cognitive impairment and lesion (CWML) location within the cerebellum. High resolution structural MRI was acquired on 16 cognitively impaired (CI) and 15 cognitively preserved (CP) RRMS subjects at 3T and used for lesion identification and voxel-lesion symptom analysis (VLSM). CI RRMS demonstrated a predilection for the middle cerebellar peduncle (MCP). VLSM results indicate that lesions of the MCP are significantly associated with CI in RRMS. Measures of cerebellar lesion load were correlated with age at disease onset but not disease duration. A specific pattern of cerebellar lesions involving the MCP, rather than the total cerebellar white matter lesion load, contributes to cognitive dysfunction in RRMS. Cerebellar lesion profiles may provide a biomarker of current or evolving risk for cognitive status change in RRMS.
