Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Carotid artery stenosis is a major cause of stroke. Non‐contrast MR angiography (MRA) using time‐spatial labeling inversion pulse (Time‐SLIP) may offer potential advantages over 3D time‐of‐flight (TOF)‐MRA for simultaneous visualization of carotid, vertebral, and subclavian arteries, but remains uninvestigated.

Morphometric Study of Foramen Transversarium in Dried Cervical Vertebrae: A Cross-sectional Osteological Study in Eastern Indian Population [PDF]
International Journal of Anatomy Radiology and SurgeryIntroduction: The Foramen Transversarium (FT), located in the transverse process of cervical vertebrae, is a key feature for the identification of cervical vertebrae. These foramina vary in size, shape and number, and they may even be absent.

Sonographic Anatomy and Imaging of the Extracranial Component of the Hypoglossal Nerve (CNXII)
Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.The hypoglossal nerve (HN) provides motor innervation to tongue muscles responsible for tongue movement, speech, mastication, swallowing, respiratory functions and management of oral secretions. The intracranial component of the HN can be demonstrated on magnetic resonance imaging and the extracranial component can be demonstrated with sonographic ...

Analysis of the Justification for Spinal Computed Tomography (CT) Scans Performed in Togo
Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.The undeniable benefits of irradiating examinations such as CT scans should not overshadow their potential harmful effects, particularly late risks. Hence it is important to justify CT scans requested for patients. This study revealed that a significant number of spinal CT scans performed in developing countries such as Togo were not a priori justified,

Ex vivo human brain volumetry: Validation of MRI measurements
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose The volume of in vivo human brains is determined with various MRI measurement tools that have not been assessed against a gold standard. The purpose of this study was to validate the MRI brain volumes by scanning ex vivo, in situ specimens, which allows the extraction of the brain after the scan to compare its volume with the gold ...

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose Water‐extraction‐with‐phase‐contrast‐arterial‐spin‐tagging (WEPCAST) MRI is a non‐contrast method to estimate the blood–brain barrier (BBB) permeability to water. Similar to other arterial‐spin‐labeling (ASL) based techniques, signal‐to‐noise ratio is a limitation.
