During recent years, the development of measures to assess the accumulation of disability and inflammatory activity in the progressive forms of multiple sclerosis (MS) has been a central point of research in various groups. Several instruments have been developed and implemented in order to accurately and early identify the activity and progression in this MS phenotype. Many of these tools, with greater or lesser sensitivity, have been used in clinical trials, although their use in healthcare practice is not entirely familiar to professionals involved in the care of patients with MS. The objective of this review is to describe the clinical and imaging evaluation measures implemented during the last years to identify the activity and the evolution of the disease in its progressive forms.
