Xavier Montalban, MD, PhD, MBA, Vall d’Hebron University Hospital, Barcelona, Spain, provides an overview of using digital technology to help treat multiple sclerosis. As clinicals may meet patients sporadically, they might not be able to accurately monitor patient progress. Video technology can enable constant monitoring and phase III trials are underway to utilize these techniques in a clinical setting to look out for relapses and regression in patients. This interview was conducted during the 2022 World Congress on Controversies in Neurology (CONy) meeting.
