GEN-O-MA project: an Italian network studying clinical course and pathogenic pathways of moyamoya disease—study protocol and preliminary results [PDF]
Background: GENetics of mOyaMoyA (GEN-O-MA) project is a multicenter observational study implemented in Italy aimed at creating a network of centers involved in moyamoya angiopathy (MA) care and research and at collecting a large series and bio ...

DS6, Deformation-aware Semi-supervised Learning: Application to Small Vessel Segmentation with Noisy Training Data [PDF]
Blood vessels of the brain provide the human brain with the required nutrients and oxygen. As a vulnerable part of the cerebral blood supply, pathology of small vessels can cause serious problems such as Cerebral Small Vessel Diseases (CSVD). It has also been shown that CSVD is related to neurodegeneration, such as Alzheimer's disease.

Transient global amnesia after cerebral angiography still occurs: Case report and literature review
Transient global amnesia is considered a very rare complication of diagnostic cerebral angiography, and has been reported only in a limited number of case reports more than 15 years ago.

Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistula successfully treated by combined open-endovascular procedure [PDF]
Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas constitute a rare though potentially devastating disease. Because the arterial (high-pressure) blood flow drains directly into the low-pressure venous system, there is a high risk of bleeding and associated ...

Segmentation method for cerebral blood vessels from MRA using hysteresis [PDF]
Segmentation of cerebral blood vessels from Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an open problem that could be solved with deep learning (DL). However, annotated data for training is often scarce. Due to the absence of open-source tools, we aim to develop a classical segmentation method that generates vessel ground truth from Magnetic Resonance ...

Subarachnoid hemorrhage patients with hemorrhagic lesions of the corpus callosum (n = 6/280) are at an elevated risk of unfavorable 3‐month functional outcome. Abstract Background and purpose Non‐traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating disease associated with high morbidity and mortality.

VesselShot: Few-shot learning for cerebral blood vessel segmentation [PDF]
Angiography is widely used to detect, diagnose, and treat cerebrovascular diseases. While numerous techniques have been proposed to segment the vascular network from different imaging modalities, deep learning (DL) has emerged as a promising approach.
