BACKGROUND: Early results of postoperative fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (FSRT) for functional and nonfunctional pituitary adenomas appear promising, but the majority of available evidence draws from small series with insufficient follow-up data to draw meaningful conclusions.
BACKGROUND: Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is an increasingly common modality used with surgery for resectable brain metastases (BM).
Introduction: Cerebellar cortical infarct cavities are a newly recognised entity associated with atherothromboembolic cerebrovascular disease and worse physical functioning. We aimed to investigate the relationship of cerebellar cortical infarct cavities with symptomatic vertebrobasilar ischaemia and with vascular risk factors.
Introduction: Early assessment of the pyramidal tracts is important for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients in order to decide the optimal treatment or to assess appropriate rehabilitation strategies, and management of patient expectations and goals. The purpose of this study was to systematically review and summarize the current available literature on the value of Fractional Anisotropy (FA) parameter of the diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in predicting upper extremity (UE) motor recovery after subacute ICH.
Introduction: The aneurysm wall has been reported to play a critical role in the formation, development, and even rupture of an aneurysm. We used high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HRMRI) to investigate the aneurysm wall in an effort to identify evidence of inflammation invasion and define its relationship with aneurysm behavior.
Introduction: Severity of vascular damage of white matter may predict hemorrhagic transformation (HT). We assess the relationship between leukoaraiosis (LA) severity and the type of hemorrhagic transformation in elderly patients treated with thrombolysis.
Introduction: Flow diverters are increasingly being used to treat intracranial aneurysms. This study evaluates occurring complications of flow-diverting devices in the treatment of experimental aneurysms, involving the use of micro-CT and small animal MRI at 9.4 T, in correlation to angiographic and histological findings.
Introduction: Spontaneous dissections of intracranial arteries are rare, but important causes of stroke, especially in younger patients. Dissections of the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) have been reported only very rarely in the European and North American populations but might be more prevalent than previously thought.
Introduction: The purpose of this study was to determine the added value of the perimedullary spinal vein enlargement sign on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in distinguishing intradural-extramedullary tumors (IDEMTs) from intramedullary spinal tumors (IMTs).
Introduction: This article describes anterior disco-osteo-arterial conflict as an insofar unsuspected mechanism of arterial flow impairment potentially leading to spinal cord ischemia and infarction.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Internal carotid artery dissection is a common cause of stroke in young adults. It may be responsible for tandem occlusion defined by a cervical steno-occlusive carotid wall hematoma associated with an intracranial large-vessel stroke. Intravenous thrombolysis is associated with a poor clinical outcome in these cases, and endovascular treatment has not been specifically evaluated to date. Our aim was to evaluate endovascular treatment technical and clinical efficiency in this specific occlusion topography, in comparison with treatment of isolated anterior circulation stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Intra-arterial chemotherapy for retinoblastoma is not always a straightforward procedure, and it may require an adaptable approach. This study illustrates strategies used when the ophthalmic artery is difficult to catheterize or not visible, and it ascertains the effectiveness and safety of these strategies.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The selection of patients for endovascular therapy is an important issue in stroke imaging. The aim of this study was to determine the predictive value of 3 different dynamic CT angiography parameters, occlusion length, collateralization extent, and time delay to maximum enhancement, for latest generation of stent retriever thrombectomy recanalization outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Inflow jet characteristics may be related to aneurysmal bleb formation and rupture. We investigated the visualization threshold on the basis of the flow velocity in the parent artery to classify the inflow jet patterns observed on 4D flow MR imaging.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The incidence of wall enhancement of cerebral aneurysms on vessel wall MR imaging has been described as higher in ruptured intracranial aneurysms than in unruptured intracranial aneurysms, but the difference in the degree of enhancement between ruptured and unruptured aneurysms is unknown. We compared the degree of enhancement between ruptured and unruptured intracranial aneurysms by using quantitative MR imaging measures.
