Age Related Structural Changes in Human Basilar Artery
The basilar artery is the most important artery in the posterior cerebral circulation. In the cases of stroke due to acute basilar artery occlusion the mortality rate is significantly higher if compared to all the stroke cases. Arterial wall stiffening is characteristic of ageing arteries and in many investigations arterial wall stiffening is related to the loss of the elastic component in the ...
متن کاملBasilar Artery Changes in Fabry Disease.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Dolichoectasia of the basilar artery is a characteristic finding of Fabry disease. However, its prevalence, severity, and course have been poorly studied. This study quantitatively evaluated, by MRA, a panel of basilar artery parameters in a large cohort of patients with Fabry disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS Basilar artery mean diameter, curved length, "origin-to-end" li...
متن کاملThe functional and structural changes in the basilar artery due to overpressure blast injury
Overpressure blast-wave induced brain injury (OBI) leads to progressive pathophysiologic changes resulting in a reduction in brain blood flow, blood brain barrier breakdown, edema, and cerebral ischemia. The aim of this study was to evaluate cerebral vascular function after single and repeated OBI. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups: Control (Naive), single OBI (30 psi peak...
متن کاملAge-related changes in brain structural covariance networks
Previous neuroimaging studies have suggested that cerebral changes over normal aging are not simply characterized by regional alterations, but rather by the reorganization of cortical connectivity patterns. The investigation of structural covariance networks (SCNs) using voxel-based morphometry is an advanced approach to examining the pattern of covariance in gray matter (GM) volumes among diff...
متن کاملHemodynamic changes in the basilar artery following stenting.
A 75-year-old man had a 2-week history of recurrent, in crescendo episodes of diplopia, dizziness, dysarthria, and right-sided hemiparesis. Transcranial color-coded sonography (TCCS) showed a severe proximal basilar artery (BA) stenosis with an enddiastolic flow velocity of 142 cm/sec (figure, A, arrow) confirmed by angiography. BA angioplasty and stent application was performed in view of pers...
