abstract deep seated cavernous angioma (ca) is a very rare entity, those occurring in the hypothalamus are still less common. we present a case of a 52-year-old man who presented with behavior and memory disturbance attacks. he had a ca of the hypothalamus as revealed by magnetic resonance imaging (mri). we will discuss the role and importance of imaging in such scenario and also the differenti...

background: early diagnosis of brain tumors has significant effect on the treatment process. brain metastatic tumors are usually diagnosed following the neurological symptoms in patients or incidentally after computerized tomography (ct) scan and magnetic resonance imaging (mri) requests of the brain. objectives: implementation of a new method for being informed about the origin of brain tumors...

Introduction: The brain tumor is an abnormal growth of tissue in the brain, which is one of the most important challenges in neurology. Brain tumors have different types. Some brain tumors are benign and some brain tumors are cancerous and malignant. Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) is the most common and deadliest malignant brain tumor in adults. The average survival rate for peo...

Introduction: The Iranian Brain Imaging Database (IBID) was initiated in 2017, with 5 major goals: provide researchers easy access to a neuroimaging database, provide normative quantitative measures of the brain for clinical research purposes, study the aging profile of the brain, examine the association of brain structure and function, and join the ENIGMA consortium. Many prestigious databases...

Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays an essential role in molecular imaging by delivering the contrast agent into targeted cancer cells. The aim of this study was to evaluate the C595 monoclonal antibody-conjugated superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs-C595) for the detection of breast cancer cell (MCF-7). Methods: The conjugation of monoclonal antibody and nanopartic...

perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (pecoma) is a rare mesenchymal tumor composed of immunohistochemically and histologically distinctive perivascular epithelioid cells. here, we report on the computed tomography (ct) and magnetic resonance imaging (mri) findings of ovarian pecoma with pulmonary metastasis. the tumor was visible as a multilocular hemorrhagic mass that encased the ovarian vessel...

abstract cerebral sinovenous thrombosis (csvt) in children has rarely been reported in the literature, especially without underlying disorder. it has increasingly been diagnosed due to clinical awareness and sensitive neuroimaging techniques. the aim of this article was to report a case of cerebral sinovenous thrombosis without underlying disorder. we reported a 5 year old girl, presented with ...

We describe the case of a 72-year-old man who presented with dementia that had progressed rapidly over a few months. Laboratory analysis of blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) showed no abnormalities, with the exception of a slightly increased CSF protein level. Results of routine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) including diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA...

calcifying aponeurotic fibroma (caf) is a rare, benign fibroblastic tumor that typically occurs in the palms of the hands and soles of the feet, in children and adolescents. due to its infiltrative nature, this tumor can mimic malignancy on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (mri) and has a predilection for local recurrence. there are very few reports in the literature that describe featur...
