Abstract

Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a progressive disease of the central nervous system with increasing global prevalence, representing a challenge for patients and health professionals. This study aims to address recent diagnostic and therapeutic strategies to improve the management of MS. Objective: To provide a comprehensive overview of diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to MS. Methods: A bibliographic review of the last 15 years was carried out in electronic databases, using specific inclusion criteria. Fifteen articles were selected after evaluating titles and abstracts. Results and Discussion: The increase in the incidence of MS globally and advances in diagnosis, including the role of magnetic resonance imaging and biomarkers, were highlighted. Conventional and emerging therapies were also addressed, emphasizing the importance of individualizing treatment and a multidisciplinary approach. Conclusion: Ongoing research and clinical trials are essential to fill knowledge gaps. A patient-centered approach, combined with scientific advances, promises to improve quality of life and clinical outcomes in MS.
