- Testing an Adapted Auditory Verbal Learning Test Paradigm for fMRI to Lateralize Verbal Memory in Patients with Epilepsy
The adapted Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test paradigm fMRI might support verbal memory lateralization. Temporal lobe epilepsy laterality influences hippocampal memory laterality indexes. Left temporal lobe epilepsy has shown a higher proportion of atypical verbal memory compared with language, potentially secondary to memory functional reorganization.
- Utility of Dual-Energy CT to Improve Diagnosis of CSF Leaks on CT Myelography following Lateral Decubitus Digital Subtraction Myelography with Negative Findings
The capability of dual-energy CT to create virtual monoenergetic images can be leveraged to increase conspicuity of contrast in CSF-venous fistulas and direct epidural CSF leakage to improve the diagnostic utility of CT myelography.
- Fine, Vascular Network Formation in Patients with Vein of Galen Aneurysmal Malformation
Development of a fine, vascular network formation is an acquired and reversible phenomenon that differs from typical dural vessel recruitment, given the hairlike nature of the network and its rapid onset postinterventionally. It typically resolves after completion of treatment, and this resolution correlates with closure of the vein.
