Susceptibility-weighted imaging in migraine with aura.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report 2 patients with migraine with aura, in whom SWI showed transient prominence of the venous vasculature within areas of impaired perfusion. The findings resolved spontaneously in both patients. This imaging technique may play a helpful role in assessing the vascular events in migraine with aura.

Reversible white matter abnormalities in a patient with migraine.
A 35-year-old female with migraine without aura, presented with sudden onset of visual aura along with loss of vision on the left side. Following this she had nausea, vomiting and headache. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) performed at this stage revealed ill-defined lesions hyperintense on Flair images, located in the right temporal and right occipital region. Diffusion weighted images, MR ang...
متن کاملLETTERS Prolonged hemiplegic migraine associated with unilateral hyperperfusion on perfusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging
Hemiplegic migraine (HM) is an unusual subset of migraine with aura, in which headache is associated with unilateral motor deficits, thought to be attributable to an underlying calcium channelopathy. In some cases the neurological dysfunction may outlast the headache and persist for many days. In the initial stages, hemiplegic migraine may mimic cerebral infarction. Within the first few hours a...
متن کاملCerebral hypercapnia-induced vasomotor reactivity in migraine with and without aura: a case-control study
Abstract Background: Dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system has long been a subject of considerable debate and a large number of studies have disclosed contradictory results. The aim of this study was to compare cerebral vasomotor reactivity in migraine with aura (MWA) patients with migraine without aura (MWO) ones. Methods: Ten MWA patients (7 females and 3 males mean age: 39.70 years, S...
متن کاملSusceptibility of Primary Sensory Cortex to Spreading Depolarizations.
UNLABELLED Spreading depolarizations (SDs) are recognized as actors in neurological disorders as diverse as migraine and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Migraine aura involves sensory percepts, suggesting that sensory cortices might be intrinsically susceptible to SDs. We used optical imaging, MRI, and field potential and potassium electrode recordings in mice and electrocorticographic recordings...
متن کاملMigraine Susceptibility Genes in Han Chinese of Fujian Province
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Five single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs4379368, rs10504861, rs10915437, rs12134493 and rs13208321) were recently identified in a Western population with migraine. These migraine-associated SNPs have not been evaluated in a Han Chinese population. This study investigated the associations of specific SNPs with migraine in a Han population. METHODS This was a case-...
