• Deep gray matter (dGM) structures are very much involved in the MS disease process and quite substantial neurodegeneration is undergone during the relapsing-remitting phase of the MS disease. • Deep gray matter (dGM) quantitative changes occur in a non-uniform and non-linked pattern and, except for CN's iron deposition, do not directly associate with the MS disease severity. • Most white matter T2 lesions' metrics tend to correlate with MS disease severity better than those of dGM structures.
