Quantitative Evaluation of Carotid Artery Stenosis by Multi‐VENC 4D Flow MRI: Incorporating Turbulent Kinetic Energy for Clinical Validity

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cervical internal carotid artery stenosis (ICS) is a recognized risk factor for ischemic stroke, yet morphological severity alone may not fully reflect hemodynamic alterations. Turbulent kinetic energy (TKE), derived from multi‐velocity‐encoding (multi‐VENC) four‐dimensional (4D) flow MRI, may provide a robust marker for ICS ...

Carotid endarterectomy: The procedure of choice for carotid stenosis

Indian Journal of Neurosurgery, 2013
Ischemic stroke is the commonest cause of neurological morbidity and mortality. Carotid endarterectomy has been shown to be beneficial in preventing ischemic strokes in patients with significant stenosis of the carotid artery, both in symptomatic and ...

Carotid stenting for irradiation-associated carotid stenosis 3 years after previous carotid endarterectomy [PDF]

, 2003
Extracranial carotid stenosis is a known complication of external irradiation to the head and neck region. We report on a patient with previous carotid endarterectomy for irradiation-associated carotid stenosis. This patient developed symptomatic carotid

Is there an association between leukoaraiosis volume and diabetes? [PDF]

, 2016
Objectives: The relation between white matter loss (WML) and diabetes is still debated. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between typical WML— and diabetesrelated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in a cohort of patients ...

External carotid endarterectomy [PDF]

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 1984
Forty-nine external carotid revascularization procedures were performed in 36 patients. Indications included transient ischemic attacks, amaurosis fugax, and the procedure as a prelude to extracranial-to-intracranial bypass. Twenty patients had a preoperative neurologic defect.

Imaging Characteristics of Persistent Carotid‐Vertebrobasilar Anastomoses Detected by Ultrasound

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
In this case series, we aimed to evaluate the ultrasonic characteristics of 35 patients with persistent carotid‐vertebrobasilar anastomoses (PCVBA), a rare variant between the anterior and posterior cerebral circulation. Ultrasound detected seven (30.4%, 7/23) primitive trigeminal arteries (PTA), eight (100%, 8/8) primitive hypoglossal arteries (PHA ...

Serious outcomes among emergency department patients with presyncope: A systematic review

Academic Emergency Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Syncope is transient loss of consciousness, and in presyncope, patients experience same prodromal symptoms without losing consciousness. While studies have extensively reported the risk of serious outcome among emergency department (ED) syncope, the outcome for patients with presyncope and their management are not well studied.

Changing Trends in Carotid Revascularization in Australia: A Nationwide Study Over 30 Years

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Carotid artery stenosis is one of the causes of acute ischaemic stroke. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and carotid artery stenting (CAS) are the main procedural treatment options. This study investigates the changing trends in carotid revascularisation in Australia over the last 30 years.
