Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Multiple sclerosis

Alan J. Thompson focuses on Multiple sclerosis, Pathology, Magnetic resonance imaging, Central nervous system disease and White matter. His research on Multiple sclerosis focuses in particular on Expanded Disability Status Scale. His Pathology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Axonal loss and Central nervous system.

His Magnetic resonance imaging study incorporates themes from Young adult, Abnormality and Secondary progressive multiple sclerosis. His study looks at the relationship between Central nervous system disease and topics such as Radiology, which overlap with Disease and Cohort. Alan J. Thompson interconnects Differential diagnosis, McDonald criteria and Clinically isolated syndrome in the investigation of issues within Surgery.

His most cited work include:

  • Diagnostic criteria for multiple sclerosis: 2010 Revisions to the McDonald criteria (7085 citations)
  • Recommended diagnostic criteria for multiple sclerosis: Guidelines from the International Panel on the Diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis (5753 citations)
  • Diagnostic criteria for multiple sclerosis: 2005 revisions to the "McDonald Criteria". (4139 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Multiple sclerosis, Pathology, Magnetic resonance imaging, Central nervous system disease and Neuroscience. His specific area of interest is Multiple sclerosis, where Alan J. Thompson studies Expanded Disability Status Scale. Alan J. Thompson has included themes like Clinically isolated syndrome and Spinal cord in his Pathology study.

His research investigates the connection between Magnetic resonance imaging and topics such as Optic neuritis that intersect with problems in Ophthalmology. His studies deal with areas such as Neurology and Nuclear medicine as well as Central nervous system disease. His work in the fields of Neuroscience, such as Functional magnetic resonance imaging, overlaps with other areas such as Clinical neurology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Multiple sclerosis (60.44%)
  • Pathology (22.11%)
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (21.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Multiple sclerosis (60.44%)
  • Pathology (22.11%)
  • Spinal cord (9.89%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Multiple sclerosis, Pathology, Spinal cord, Clinical neurology and Neuroscience are his primary areas of study. Alan J. Thompson is involved in the study of Multiple sclerosis that focuses on Expanded Disability Status Scale in particular. His Pathology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cerebellum, White matter, Myelitis and Clinically isolated syndrome.

His research in Clinically isolated syndrome focuses on subjects like Cohort, which are connected to McDonald criteria. He combines subjects such as Anesthesia, Cord, Surgery and Diffusion MRI with his study of Spinal cord. His Neuroscience research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Medical physics and Clinical significance.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Diagnosis of multiple sclerosis: 2017 revisions of the McDonald criteria (1618 citations)
  • Defining the clinical course of multiple sclerosis: The 2013 revisions (1374 citations)
  • Atlas of Multiple Sclerosis 2013: A growing global problem with widespread inequity (574 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Disease
  • Magnetic resonance imaging

His primary areas of study are Multiple sclerosis, Magnetic resonance imaging, Spinal cord, Intensive care medicine and Pathology. His biological study focuses on Expanded Disability Status Scale. His Expanded Disability Status Scale research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Clinically isolated syndrome, Voxel-based morphometry and Cardiology.

In his research on the topic of Magnetic resonance imaging, Neuroprotection is strongly related with Neuroimaging. The study incorporates disciplines such as White matter, Diffusion imaging and Cord, Surgery in addition to Spinal cord. Alan J. Thompson interconnects Clinical trial, Incidence, Psychiatry, Neurology and Management of multiple sclerosis in the investigation of issues within Intensive care medicine.
