- Pulsatile Tinnitus Due to Stenosis of the Marginal Sinus: Diagnosis and Endovascular Treatment
Marginal sinus stenosis is a novel cause of venous pulsatile tinnitus, which can be easily detected on MR imaging. Marginal sinus stent placement is safe and efficient.
- Prenatal Evaluation of Intracranial Hemorrhage on Fetal MRI: A Retrospective Review
The EPI blood sequence is the most sensitive in the identification of fetal intracranial hemorrhage, which, in conjunction with T2-SSFSE images, can optimize classification and subsequent grading of germinal matrix hemorrhages in the fetus. The authors report a significant increase in neonatal death in the non-GMH-versus-GMH group and worsened brain parenchymal findings in more severe GMH grades (III-IV) on postnatal MR imaging.
- Clinical Implementation of 7T MRI for the Identification of Incidental Intracranial Aneurysms versus Anatomic Variants
In 30 cases, the differentiation of an aneurysm versus a vascular variant could be achieved. In 20 cases (66%), the initial suspected diagnosis was revised. The findings suggest that 7T MR imaging provides a clarification tool for the group of patients with suspected unruptured intracranial aneurysms and diagnostic ambiguity after standard 3T MR imaging.
