Hot Topics in Pediatric Neuroradiology

Hot topics in functional neuroradiology.

Functional neuroradiology represents a relatively new and ever-growing subspecialty in the field of neuroradiology. Neuroradiology has evolved beyond anatomy and basic tissue signal characteristics and strives to understand the underlying physiologic processes of central nervous system disease. The American Society of Functional Neuroradiology sponsors a yearly educational and scientific meetin...

Hot Topics in Research: Preventive Neuroradiology in Brain Aging and Cognitive Decline.

Preventive neuroradiology is a new concept supported by growing literature. The main rationale of preventive neuroradiology is the application of multimodal brain imaging toward early and subclinical detection of brain disease and subsequent preventive actions through identification of modifiable risk factors. An insightful example of this is in the area of age-related cognitive decline, mild c...

A search for a two-body transition Υ (3S) → γA0, where A0 is a light scalar particle, followed by its decay into 2 muons has been performed using a data sample of (121 ± 1.2) × 106 Υ (3S) decays. As ΓΥ (4S)/ΓΥ (3S) ≈ 10 3, one has greater sensitivity to rare decays using Υ (3S) decays than Υ (4S) samples. The Standard Model (SM) predicts the existence of the Higgs boson to account for the diffe...

Pediatric neuroradiology: a perspective.

~n the evaluation of a developing organ system, it ts a challenge to recognize the continuously changing state of normal, identify variations of normal, appreciate abnormalities, and assess their significance. So it is in pediatric neuroradiology (1~, exemplified by the trite, often overused aphonsm-a child is not simply a small adult. The very complexity of the developing central nervous syste...
