Cerebral Palsy is the most common chronic motor disorder of childhood, that affecting approximately 3 infants per 1000 live-births. The risk of brain injuries that potentially cause Cerebral Palsy has amplified with increasing in survival rates for preterm infants. In addition Cerebral Palsy has a huge economic impact, to immeasurable health, social, and psychological problems that affected chi...

The brain tumor is abnormal growth of cells inside skull which causes damage of the other cells necessary for functioning human brain. The brain tumor detection is challenging task due to complex structure of human brain. MRI images generated from MRI scanners using strong magnetic fields and radio waves to form images of the body which helps for medical diagnosis. This paper gives the overview...

Traumatic brain injury is a major cause of death and disability. This is a brief report based on a symposium presentation to the 2014 Chinese Neurotrauma Association Meeting in San Francisco, USA. It covers the work from our laboratory in applying multimodal MRI to study experimental traumatic brain injury in rats with comparisons made to behavioral tests and histology. MRI protocols include st...

BACKGROUND Brain metastasis is a common disease with a poor prognosis. The purpose of this study is to test feasibility and safety of the animal models for brain metastases and to use dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) to enhance detection of brain metastases. METHODS With approval from the institutional animal ethics committee, 18 New Zealand rabbits were randomly...

Background: Demyelinating events expressed as abnormal thermoregulatory responses are rare, but intractable fever in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is very rarely reported.Case Report: A 56-year-old woman presented with quadriparesis acroparesthesia. During the admission, developed and persisted for 2 days despite administration of high-dose antipyretics...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess the utility of preoperative head ultrasound scan (HUS) in a cohort of newborns also under going preoperative MRI as part of a prospective research study of brain injury in infants having surgery for congenital heart disease(CHD). METHODS A total of 167 infants diagnosed with CHD were included in this 3-center study. None of the patients had cl...

An 88-year-old woman with a clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease and advanced dementia, was evaluated with standard MRI of the brain as well as Susceptibility Weighted Imaging (SWI) with the MRI. SWI revealed more extensive brain microhemorrhages than standard MRI techniques, allowing the radiologic diagnosis of cerebral amyloid angiopathy. SWI shows promise as a more sensitive diagnostic ...

We investigated various magnetic resonance MRI parameters for both brain and spinal cord to see if any improved the clinicoradiological correlation in multiple sclerosis. Ninety-one multiple sclerosis patients (28 relapsing-remitting, 32 secondary progressive and 31 primary progressive) were imaged using conventional T1, proton density- and T2-weighted MRI of the brain and spinal cord. Focal br...
