Summary: We present the case of an unusually located in-tracranial lipoma in a 17-year-old patient with partial ep-ilepsy who was being controlled with medication. The li-poma was located deep in the left sylvian fissure, in the inferior... more
Rationale and ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to compare gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) angiography with contrast material–enhanced computed tomography (CT) for the detection of small (4–5-mm) pulmonary emboli (PE),... more
Background and Purpose—We sought to map early regional ischemia and infarction in patients with middle cerebral artery (MCA) stroke and compare them with final infarct size using advanced MRI techniques. MRI can now delineate very early... more
Severe primary central nervous system (CNS) involvement such as vasculitis and pachymeningitis can rarely occur in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) even in the absence of systemic disease activation. The authors illustrate a female patient with... more
The indications for treating carotid artery stenosis are related to the symptomatic nature of the lesion and the degree of stenosis. Duplex sonography is adequate for screening. While some groups believe that Duplex US alone or in... more
A B S T R A C T Over the past few decades, vascular flow-dependent imaging techniques have proven to be effective for the visualization of large vessel diseases. However, these approaches are unlikely to be efficacious for small vessels... more
Intracranial stenting is increasingly being used to treat intracranial aneurysms and stenoses. We wanted to assess the utility of magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) in the follow-up of patients treated with various types of intracranial... more
Current clinical full MR angiography with multiple breathhold multiple thin slab acquisition (MTS) is difficult and arduous. This study describes the optimisation of the whole heart free - breathing balanced turbo field echo (B-TFE)... more
Susceptibility artifact from platinum coil packs impairs the visibility of perianeurysmal soft tissues at conventional 3D time-of-flight MR angiography. These artifacts limit the evaluation for residual-recurrent aneurysm and parent... more
