Brain compression without global neuronal loss in meningiomas: whole-brain proton MR spectroscopy report of 2 cases.
We report the findings from whole-brain proton MR spectroscopy, quantifying the neuronal marker N-acetylaspartate (NAA), for 2 presurgical meningioma patients and 10 healthy controls. The patients' whole-brain NAA (WBNAA) concentrations were considerably elevated (3+ SDs) compared with healthy controls when excluding the tumors from brain volume; WBNAA levels normalized following correction to ...
متن کاملProton MR spectroscopy correlates diffuse axonal abnormalities with post-concussive symptoms in mild traumatic brain injury.
There are no established biomarkers for mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), in part because post-concussive symptoms (PCS) are subjective and conventional imaging is typically unremarkable. To test whether diffuse axonal abnormalities quantified with three-dimensional (3D) proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (¹H-MRSI) correlated with patients' PCS, we retrospectively studied 26 mTBI...
متن کاملProton Mr Spectroscopy in Brain Metabolic Disorders
Metabolic disorders of the central nervous system (CNS) include pathologies with extremely different pathogenesis. The clinical diagnosis of these disorders is often very difficult and requires sophisticated laboratory investigations. Proton magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy (1H-MRS) has been recently used in a number of clinical studies to supplement conventional MRI as it is able to provid...
متن کاملCerebellar abnormalities on proton MR spectroscopy in gluten ataxia.
Gluten sensitivity can manifest with ataxia. The metabolic status of the cerebellum was investigated in 15 patients with gluten ataxia and 10 controls using proton MR spectroscopy. Significant differences were present in mean N-acetyl aspartate levels at short echo time and N-acetyl aspartate/choline ratios at long echo time between the patient and control groups. These data support the hypothe...
متن کاملProton MR spectroscopy of brain abscesses.
We read with great interest the article by Pal et al. The authors reported on their experience with the application of proton MR (HMR) spectroscopy in the imaging evaluation of patients harboring intracranial abscess. In their retrospective study, they examined 194 patient charts and imaging studies, and they concluded that the detection of cytosolic amino acids is a strong indication of an abs...
