Comparative analysis of the spatial distribution and severity of cerebral microbleeds and old lacunes.
BACKGROUND Cerebral microbleeds, which result from microangiopathic changes following chronic hypertension, may reflect bleeding-prone microangiopathy. However, the distribution of these lesions has not been compared with that of lacunes, which represent occlusive type microangiopathy. OBJECTIVES To compare the cerebral distribution of microbleeds and lacunes and correlate their severity. M...
متن کاملLobar distribution of cerebral microbleeds: the Rotterdam Scan Study.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution of lobar microbleeds over the different lobes, taking into account lobar volume and clustering effects of multiple microbleeds. DESIGN Population-based, cross-sectional analysis. SETTING The Rotterdam Scan Study. PARTICIPANTS A total of 198 persons (age range, 61-95 years) with lobar microbleeds. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Distribution of microbleeds...
متن کاملCerebral Microbleeds: Their Associated Factors, Radiologic Findings, and Clinical Implications
Cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) are tiny, round dark-signal lesions that are most often detected on gradient-echo MR images. CMBs consist of extravasations of blood components through fragile microvascular walls characterized by lipohyalinosis and surrounding macrophages. The prevalence of CMBs in elderly subjects with no history of cerebrovascular disease is around 5%, but is much higher in patien...
متن کاملTopographical distribution of pontocerebellar microbleeds.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Microbleeds (MBs) visualized by use of T2*-weighted gradient-echo MR imaging are pathologic blood-breakdown products after tiny cerebral hemorrhages. The topographic distribution of the lesions has not been compared with that of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the distribution of MBs in the pontocerebellar region and t...
متن کاملCerebral microbleeds: histopathological correlation of neuroimaging.
BACKGROUND In recent years, there has been a growing interest in cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) and their role in cerebrovascular disease. A few studies have investigated the histopathological correlation between CMBs and neuroimaging findings. We conducted a systematic review in an attempt to characterize the pathological and radiological correlation. METHODS A systematic literature search was ...
