Brain MRI of this patient showed a large infarction up to the middle of the pons. At the initial examination 10 out of 15 patients (67%) showed loss or delay of R2 and/or R2c responses (6–15) and five ...

Illinois engineers fused ultrafast imaging with smart algorithms to peek at living brain chemistry, turning routine MRIs into ...

Ferromagnetic structures, particularly the anti-eddy plate, in a bi-planar permanent-magnet-type low-field (0.05 T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain scanner can distort the gradient field in the ...

Future Neurology. 2014;9 (5):517-520. Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), commonly referred to as 'concussion', affects over 1.7 million in the USA annually with costs of nearly US$17 billion. [1] ...

BACKGROUND: Spontaneous aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage induces early blood-brain barrier permeability dysfunction, although its clinical relevance and underlying mechanisms remain poorly ...

Wilson's disease is an inherited disorder of copper metabolism caused by a mutation in the copper-transporting gene ATP7B, and it results in excessive copper accumulation in the liver and brain ...

Upon reviewing the MRI scans, the brain white matter may be normal with NMO, transverse myelitis, optic neuritis and primary progressive MS.

The disorder is caused by genetic mutations that attack the nervous system. There is no cure for the potentially deadly disease. “Globally, there’s not a lot of medical research,” she said. “There’s ...

Objective To investigate detection ability and feasibility of serial cranial ultrasonography (CUS) and early MRI in preterm brain injury. Design Prospective cohort study. Setting Level III neonatal ...

In people with benign MS, there is a loss of overall brain tissue but other parts of the brain may grow to help compensate for the damage, a study suggests.

Professor Anne Kiltie MRI scanners were invented at the University of Aberdeen 50 years ago, but the new FCI scanner is the only one of its type used on patients anywhere in the world. The FCI derives ...
