- Hemorrhage Volume Drives Early Brain Injury and Outcome in Poor-Grade Aneurysmal SAH
Early brain injury (radiologically defined by global cerebral edema) is a major determinant of clinical outcome in poor-grade aneurysmal SAH. In this retrospective study of 400 patients with poor-grade aneurysmal SAH, it was shown that intracerebral hemorrhage volume independently predicted global cerebral edema and long-term outcome, intraventricular hemorrhage volume predicted mortality and long-term outcome, and SAH volume predicted long-term clinical outcome.
- Expanding the Imaging Spectrum of Polymorphous Low-Grade Neuroepithelial Tumor of the Young in Children
The imaging spectrum of neuroimaging features in a series of pediatric patients with a histologically and molecularly proven polymorphous low-grade neuroepithelial tumor of the young is described, including the transmantle-like sign and adjacent cortical dysplasia.
- Clinical Evaluation of a 2-Minute Ultrafast Brain MR Protocol for Evaluation of Acute Pathology in the Emergency and Inpatient Settings
Ultrafast MR imaging (2.1 minutes) reconstructed with machine-learning assisted framework demonstrated significant reduction in motion artifacts and 98.5% agreement with the reference MR protocol (10 minutes) on the main clinical diagnosis, though there were greater image noise and geometric distortion on the ultrafast protocol.
