The subarachnoid space is an important component of the developing intracranial compartment. As fetal brain MRI becoming more commonplace for early CNS disease diagnosis, it imperative to determine age-based standards normal depth. We aim provide 2D reference measurements supratentorial spaces in apparently healthy mid and later second-trimester fetuses. In this cross-sectional study, we included all singleton MRIs between gestational weeks 19 27 without visible pathologies. frontal,...
To evaluate the role of diffusion MRI in differentiating pediatric posterior fossa tumors and determine cut-off values ADC ratio to distinguish medulloblastoma from other common tumors.We retrospectively reviewed 90 patients (7.5-year median age) with pathologically proven (24 medulloblastoma, 7 ependymoma, 4 anaplastic 13 pilocytic astrocytoma, 30 diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), ATRT, 3 2 high grade glioblastoma, 1 low glioma). The conventional characteristics were evaluated. Two...
<h3>ABSTRACT</h3> <h3>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:</h3> Hemangioblastoma is a rare vascular tumor that occurs within the central nervous system in children. Differentiating hemangioblastoma from other posterior fossa tumors can be challenging on imaging, and preoperative diagnosis change neurosurgical approach. We hypothesize 'lightbulb sign' ASL sequence (diffuse homogenous intense hyperperfusion solid component of tumor) will provide additional imaging finding to differentiate tumors....
To evaluate the effectiveness of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and susceptibility-weighted (SWI) for differentiation between germinoma other pineal region tumors.This retrospective study consisted 72 patients with pathologically proven tumors January 2010 August 2020. Tumors were classified as germinomas (40), non-germinomatous germ cell (11) (NGGCT), parenchymal (10) (PPT), types (11). Visual scale score, ADC values SWI intratumoral susceptibility signal (ITSS) score analyzed compared to...
Abstract INTRODUCTION Hemangioblastoma is a rare vascular tumor which occurs within the central nervous system in children. Differentiating hemangioblastoma from other posterior fossa tumors can be challenging on imaging and preoperative diagnosis change neurosurgical approach. We hypothesize ‘lightbulb sign’ (diffuse homogenous intense hyperperfusion solid component of tumor) will help differentiate tumors. METHODS In this retrospective case-control study, we only included pathology-proven...
Children who are exposed to HIV in utero but uninfected (HIV-exposed or HEU) at higher risk of neurodevelopmental delays compared children born persons without HIV. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies have revealed differences grey matter volumes, cerebral perfusion, and white changes these children. However, MRI is costly not widely available areas with high prevalence, like Botswana, where more than 15% HEU. To address this, we explored the use brain ultrasound, conducted by trained...
Objective: To find prevalence and causes of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-avid mediastinal lymph nodes in patients with colorectal cancer a tuberculosis-endemic area.Material Methods: For this study we enrolled who underwent Fluorine-18 positron emission tomography/computed tomography (F-18 FDG PET/CT). Then, PET/CT images were reviewed by nuclear medicine physician to uptake beyond the lung background defined as FDG-avid node. The degree was graded measured, associated factors for presence...
