has the potential to improve access to brain imaging and facilitate diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). However, due to longer acquisition time, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) at LF is often ...
The restricted diffusion of water molecules results in increased signal intensity on DWI. The use of DWI is approximately four to five times more sensitive for detecting acute stroke than is ...
Background: Magnetic resonance diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is the most sensitive modality for ischemic stroke diagnosis. However, DWI may fail to detect ischemic lesions in a proportion of ...
Multiple relatives had hypertension, and his paternal grandfather had had a stroke ... hemorrhage, and diffusion-weighted imaging showed no evidence of restricted diffusion — findings that ...
There is currently no diagnostic biomarker for PCS. There have been attempts at identifying structural and functional brain changes in patients with PCS, using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and ...
Emory University School of Medicine This case report suggests that magnetic resonance imaging with diffusion weighted imaging may help distinguish between tumour recurrence and radiation induced ...
Stroke Warning Sign Acronyms Drive 911 Calls, F.A.S.T. Leads in Symptom Recall for Public Jan. 30, 2025 — Both F.A.S.T. and BE-FAST acronyms motivated people to call 911 right away for a ...
This workup usually begins with a CT scan and often involves an MRI as well. Doctors diagnose the stroke through these brain imaging studies. Physicians typically treat ischemic stroke by giving ...
A GROUNDBREAKING study has revealed that stroke patients with greater total myelin volume (TMV), measured using synthetic MRI, are more likely to experience favourable outcomes. The findings suggested ...
Sugar-sweetened beverages, the epidemiology of driving after an ICD, BP measurements, and massive EBM lesson in EVT for acute stroke are the topics John Mandrola, MD, discusses in today's podcast.
