Set aside, cut side up, for 30 min. Heat the oven to 400Â°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Over the sink, gently squeeze the eggplant to extract the salty juice and wipe them dry with a paper towel. Brush each half thoroughly with olive oil (about 1 tsp. per half for Italian eggplant, 2 tsp. per half for globe). Arrange each half, cut side down, on top of a sprig or two of thyme on the baking sheet. Roast for 1 hour. The eggplant will collapse and the bottoms will be a deep brown caramel color. Let cool considerably before handling, at least 20 min. Gently turn the cut side up. If serving as a side dish, serve with a lemon wedge for squeezing or drizzle with vinaigrette.
Although there is no single test or set of tests that can establish a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS), there are three tests that are generally considered useful: 1  Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) 2  Visual evoked potentials (VEP) 3  Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) currently is the preferred imaging technique for obtaining evidence in support of a diagnosis of MS. On MRI, lesions are usually best detected on T2-weighted scans and appear as increased signal (long T2).
