Magnetic Resonance Imaging Characteristics of Persistent Vegetative State Due to Prolonged Hypoglycemia

Magnetic resonance imaging characteristics of persistent vegetative state due to prolonged hypoglycemia.

Hypoglycemia is the sudden decrease in serum glucose level <50mg/dL. Neurological manifestations complicating profound and prolonged hypoglycemia range from reversible focal deficits and transient encephalopathy to irreversible coma. Here, we report magnetic resonance imaging characteristics of a patient with prolonged hypoglylicemia. A 47-year-old woman with a history of insulin dependent diab...

Magnetic resonance imaging of feline eye

The purpose of this study was to investigate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the normal feline eyeand optic nerves using T1-weighted and T2-weighted images. A total of 6 healthy female domestic short haircats age 2-2.5 years and weighing 3.2 ± 0.4 kg were selected. Magnetic resonance imaging data werecollected using GEMSOW (Philips) at a magnetic field strength of 1.5 T. Dorsal, sagittal, a...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Vermian Lipoma

Using functional magnetic resonance imaging to detect covert awareness in the vegetative state.

The assessment of patients with disorders of consciousness, including the vegetative state, is difficult and depends frequently on subjective interpretations of the observed spontaneous and volitional behavior. For those patients who retain peripheral motor function, rigorous behavioral assessment supported by structural imaging and electrophysiological findings is usually sufficient to establi...
