Resumo

A esclerose múltipla é a doença desmielinizante do sistema nervoso central mais frequente, caracterizando-se pelo início precoce e incapacidade progressiva. A ressonância magnética, pela elevada sensibilidade e especificidade na deteção de lesões desmielinizantes, é o exame complementar mais útil nesta patologia, sendo a administração de meios de contraste com gadolínio um importante contributo na interpretação imagiológica. Embora o contraste seja imprescindível no âmbito do diagnóstico, a sua utilização por rotina na monitorização da atividade de doença, resposta ao tratamento e respetivas complicações é controversa. O objetivo deste artigo é reunir as recomendações atuais relativas à utilização do gadolínio no seguimento imagiológico da esclerose múltipla e definir um protocolo clínico efetivo e seguro. A revisão da literatura foi conduzida na PubMed, recorrendo aos termos ‘esclerose múltipla’, ‘ressonância magnética’ e ‘gadolínio’ ou ‘meio de contraste’. Foram selecionados artigos publicados entre janeiro de 2013 e de 2023 relativos à segurança do gadolínio e à sua utilização na ressonância magnética de controlo dos doentes adultos com diagnóstico de esclerose múltipla. Apesar de nenhuma consequência biológica ou clínica ter sido inequivocamente atribuída à retenção cerebral do gadolínio, que foi reportada maioritariamente com agentes lineares, as autoridades de saúde têm vindo a recomendar a restrição do contraste a circunstâncias clínicas essenciais. Na esclerose múltipla, a deteção de lesões subclínicas com captação de gadolínio sem tradução em lesões novas/aumentadas nas sequências ponderadas em T2 ocorre raramente e com impacto na decisão terapêutica questionável. Por outro lado, o gadolínio assume uma sensibilidade superior no diagnóstico diferencial de surtos clínicos, na deteção de atividade inflamatória recente, antes e após o início de uma terapêutica e nos doentes com elevada carga lesional ou lesões difusas/confluentes nas sequências ponderadas em T2. Contrariamente ao rastreio da leucoencefalopatia multifocal progressiva, a monitorização da síndrome inflamatória de reconstituição imunológica beneficia também da inclusão do gadolínio. É exequível e segura a exclusão do gadolínio no seguimento imagiológico de rotina da esclerose múltipla, apesar do seu contributo adicional em circunstâncias clínicas específicas que devem ser do conhecimento articulado do neurologista e neurorradiologista.
