How does the disease work on a biological level? What happens when the body's immune system attacks the myelin sheath around the nerve cell. What cells are in this mechanism, what proteins, lipids, or carbohydrates are involved, how are those molecular units interacting with each other to make the disease manifest?

Hey, i wanted to know if this makes sense, ''In MRI of spinal cord, T2 weighted imaging is used to observe the distinctive lesions which usually extends over three vertebral segments'' ?

also i read 'there was an associated high signal intensity on the t2 weighted sequence'. what does this mean really?
