Quantitative T2* magnetic resonance imaging for evaluation of iron deposition in the brain of β-thalassemia patients
Serum ferritin and liver iron content may not be good indicators of brain iron deposition in patients with β thalassemia major.
Skull Base Aneurysmal Bone Cyst Presented with Foramen Jugular Syndrome and Multi-Osseous Involvement
Aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is an expansile bone lesion that usually involves the long bones
The effects of voxel localization and time of echo on the diagnostic accuracy of cystic brain tumors in 3 tesla magnetic resonance spectroscopy
Selection of voxels with the guide of chemical shift imaging map yields to 100% diagnostic sensitivity. If not accessible, the use of the union of peripheral and central voxels enhances the sensitivity when compared to usage of peripheral or central voxels solely.
The Prospective Profile of Endovascular Coiling of Cerebral Aneurysms: The Impact of Clinical Presentation, Procedural Results, Aneurysm Rupture and Location
Selection of voxels with the guide of chemical shift imaging map yields to 100% diagnostic sensitivity. If not accessible, the use of the union of peripheral and central voxels enhances the sensitivity when compared to usage of peripheral or central voxels solely.
The relationship between enhanced plaques with Gadovist and Magnevist contrast brain magnetic resonance imaging and the neurological deficit in the acute phase of relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis
both Magnevist and Gadovist could be used as the contrast material to detect enhancing plaques in relapse phase of multiple sclerosis
Tonsilolith in Routine Panoramic Radiographies; Is It a Common Incidental Finding?
The present study demonstrated that tonsiloliths may be accidentally detected through panoramic radiographs in nearly 5% of cases. There is no gender-based predisposition, and tonsiloliths are more common in the 41 to 60-year-old group.
Traumatic Dissecting Posterior Cerebral Artery Aneurysm: A Case Report and Review of the Literature
Dissecting posterior cerebral artery (PCA) aneurysms are among rare cerebrovascular malformations accounting for 2% to 6% of all aneurysms.
Ultrasonographic analysis versus histopathologic evaluation of carotid advanced atherosclerotic stenosis in an experimental rabbit model
The aim of this study was to generate an easily reproducible and inexpensive experimental rabbit carotid model of advanced atherosclerosis with morphological similarities to the human disease and the subsequent assessment of the reliability of B-mode ultrasound technology in the study of lumen area stenosis in this model
A multiscale phase field method for joint segmentation-rigid registration - Application to motion estimation of human knee joint
In this paper, a new approach of joint segmentation-rigid registration, within the variational framework of the phase field approximation of the Mumford-Shah's functional, is proposed.
Antidepressant effects of magnetic resonance imaging--based stimulation on major depressive disorder: a double-blind randomized clinical trial
this study demonstrated the antidepressant effects of DWI and T1 MRI protocols. Our results may point to usefulness of MR stimulation for clinical use in patients with major depressive disorder
