intracranial gliosis has no typical clinical signals or imaging characteristics. therefore, it can be easily misdiagnosed as neoplasm. hereby, we report a unique case of gliosis that grew outward from the surface of the brain. mri depicted its signal and enhancement pattern similar to the cerebral gray matter. the diagnosis was confirmed by pathology and immunohistochemistry. although it was di...

basic physical principles of nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (n.m.r.i), a nonionizing medical imaging technique, are described. principles of nmri with other conventional imaging methods, ie, isotope scanning, ultrasonography and radiography have been compared. t1 and t2 and spin density (s.d.) factors and different image construction techniques based on their different combinations is discu...

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...

objective cerebral palsy (cp), a common static motor neurological disorder of childhood with wide spectrum of underlying etiologies, can be demonstrated with different neuro imaging techniques. we undertook this study to investigate the diagnosis of intracranial lesions in children with cp and its correlation between clinical deficits and neuroradiological findings. materials and methods in thi...

epilepsy is an important disease with a cumulative incidence of 3% all over the life and more than half of them are started from childhood. in this study we surveyed magnetic resonance imaging (mri) findings in epileptic children and its relation with clinical and demographic findings in order to find better diagnostic and treatment modalities for these children in the future. in this cross sec...

background: back pain is a common patients' complaint, and its etiology is important because of different potential treatment approaches (based on causes). for a better diagnosis, magnetic resonance imaging (mri) is widely used in clinical settings that may result in inappropriate requests. this study aims to evaluate the appropriateness of the lumbosacral mri requests in patients with back pai...
