Fellows’ Journal Club From January 2013 to January 2016, fifty-five consecutive patients with histopathologically proved lymphomas, glioblastomas, and metastases were included in this study after undergoing MR imaging. The perfusion parameters (maximum relative CBV, maximum percentage of signal intensity recovery)
Fellows’ Journal Club The authors report their single-center experience in 22 patients with dural arteriovenous fistulas who were treated with transarterial liquid embolization in combination with transvenous balloon-assisted protection of the affected venous sinus. All patients were symptomatic, of whom
Fellows’ Journal Club Patients with basilar artery stenosis (n=126; 66 symptomatic and 60 asymptomatic) underwent high-resolution MR imaging. The relationship between imaging findings (intraplaque hemorrhage, contrast enhancement, degree of stenosis, minimal lumen area, and plaque burden) and symptoms was analyzed.
Fellows’ Journal Club This study aimed to evaluate morphologic patterns and the delineation of deeply seated collateral networks using ultra-high-field MRA in comparison with conventional DSA in 15 patients. Sequences acquired at 7T were TOF-MRA with 0.22 X 0.22 X
Fellows’ Journal Club Cross-sectional CT images and clinical records of 47 patients (89 temporal bones) were evaluated for the presence, location, and imaging features of cavitary and noncavitaryotospongiotic plaques, as well as clinical symptoms and complications in those who underwent
Fellows’ Journal Club Prospectively managed stroke data bases from 2 separate centers were retrospectively studied between 2009 and 2014 for records of tandem occlusions related to internal carotid dissection. The first step in the revascularization procedure was intracranial thrombectomy. Then,
Fellows’ Journal Club From the MR CLEAN data base, all baseline thin-slice CTA images of patients with acute ischemic stroke with intracranial large-vessel occlusion were retrospectively collected. The quantitative collateral score was calculated as the ratio of the vascular appearance
Fellows’ Journal Club The second interscalar ridge notch angle and depth were measured on MR imaging in normal ears by a single experienced neuroradiologist. The images of normal ears were then randomly mixed with images of ears with incomplete partition
Fellows’ Journal Club All patients from the Multicenter Randomized Clinical Trial of Endovascular Treatment for Acute Ischemic Stroke in the Netherlands (MR CLEAN) with an apparent ICA occlusion on CTA and available DSA images were included. Two independent observers classified
Fellows’ Journal Club The authors enrolled 53 patients with anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis and performed 2-year follow-up. Brain MRIs were acquired for all patients at the onset phase. The brain MR imaging manifestations were classified into 4 types—type 1: normal MR
