Magnetic resonance imaging of the post-mortem autistic brain.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a valuable, noninvasive tool for understanding structural abnormalities in the brain. The M.I.N.D. Institute at UC Davis has developed a protocol utilizing MRI to investigate anatomical differences in the post-mortem brain by applying a proton density weighted imaging sequence for optimal differences in image intensity (contrast) between gray and white matter...
متن کاملDiagnostic accuracy of post-mortem cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging in fetuses, newborns, and children
Background Whole body magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is increasingly used as an alternative for conventional autopsy; however, a recent systematic review suggested that post-mortem MR imaging had a sensitivity of 12% (95% CI-0.4 to 31) for detecting major cardiac pathology (Thayyil et al. Eur J Radiol 2010; 75(1):e142-8). We wanted to compare the accuracy of high-resolution 3D post-mortem card...
متن کاملA combined post-mortem magnetic resonance imaging and quantitative histological study of multiple sclerosis pathology
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory neurological condition characterized by focal and diffuse neurodegeneration and demyelination throughout the central nervous system. Factors influencing the progression of pathology are poorly understood. One hypothesis is that anatomical connectivity influences the spread of neurodegeneration. This predicts that measures of neurodegeneration will co...
متن کاملCardiac and Hepatic T2*-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Abstract Background Iron overload is the main transfusion related side effects in patients with transfusion dependent hemoglobinopathies. Severe iron deposition in tissues leads to organ dysfunction. Many organs can be affected such as heart, liver, and endocrine organs. Cardiac failure and liver fibrosis are the consequent of Iron overload in transfusion dependent hemoglobinopathy. Magne...
