- Glymphatic System in Ocular Diseases: Evaluation of MRI Findings
Increased gadolinium enhancement was found in the central and lateral anterior eye compartments and the vitreous body with retina in patients with anterior eye compartment disorders 20 and 120 minutes after contrast application, suggesting impairment of the blood-aqueous barrier.
- Arterioectatic Spinal Angiopathy of Childhood: Clinical, Imaging, Laboratory, Histologic, and Genetic Description of a Novel CNS Vascular Pathology
This study revealed a highly lethal, progressive multisegmental myelopathy associated with a unique form of noninflammatory spinal angiopathy featuring diffuse enlargement and tortuosity of spinal cord arteries, spinal cord hyperemia, and spinal cord edema.
- Nonlesional Sources of Contrast Enhancement on Postgadolinium “Black-Blood” 3D T1-SPACE Images in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis
Small intraparenchymal veins may confound the diagnosis of enhancing lesions on postgadolinium black-blood SPACE images.
- Perfusion Scotoma: A Potential Core Underestimation in CT Perfusion in the Delayed Time Window in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke
Ghost infarct core has been described to account for overestimating core infarct size in the early time period (<3 hours). The authors describe the phenomenon of underestimating core infarct size on CT perfusion in the later time period (>6 hours), which they have termed perfusion scotoma.
