Fellows’ Journal Club Ninety-four flat panel catheter angiotomography acquisitions obtained during the selective injection of intersegmental arteries providing an anterior radiculomedullary artery were reviewed. The location of radicular arteries could be ascertained in 78/94 flat panel catheter angiotomography acquisitions. Fifty-three
Editor’s Choice The authors examined the neuroimaging findings with a focus on hindbrain herniation and ventricular size in fetuses with open spinal dysraphism and compared them with postnatal imaging features in groups undergoing prenatal-versus-postnatal repair. Thirty-two of 102 (31.3%) fetuses
Fellows’ Journal Club The authors retrospectively reviewed a consecutive series of patients with diffuse intracranial dolichoectasia and compared demographics, vascular risk factors, additional aneurysm prevalence, and clinical outcomes with a group of patients with vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia. Twenty-five patients had diffuse
