Brain magnetic resonance imaging predictors in anti‐N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor encephalitis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1974-1984, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objective Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in anti‐N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis are nonspecific and rarely have obvious associations with clinical characteristics and outcomes. This study aimed to comprehensively describe the MRI features of patients with NMDAR encephalitis, examine their associations with ...

Equivalent Time Active Cavitation Imaging [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics in Medicine & Biology, 66(19), 195010 (2021), 2023
The development of neurologically active drugs faces a challenge in treating brain diseases due to the blood-brain barrier's impermeability. High-intensity focused ultrasound can open the barrier in a targeted manner, expanding treatment options. However, this procedure risks brain damage and off-target effects without proper monitoring.
