Can we predict intraoperative blood loss in meningioma patients? Application of dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging
Conclusion: The rCBV and K2 derived from DSC perfusion MR imaging in meningiomas may serve as feasible tools for clinicians to predict intraoperative blood loss and facilitate surgical planning. (Source: Journal of Neuroradiology)

Is multiple sclerosis a risk factor for atherosclerosis?
Conclusion: CIMT seems to be affected in patients with MS by means of the disease itself and age. Thus, CIMT might reflect the predisposition to subclinical atherosclerosis more than Hs-CRP. Further investigation in a large MS population is still needed. (Source: Journal of Neuroradiology)

Potential Effect of Fetal Origin of Posterior Cerebral Artery on the Arterial Spin Labeling Sequence
Publication date: Available online 6 November 2019Source: Journal of NeuroradiologyAuthor(s): Bert Geerts, Bruno Law Ye, Damien Galanaud, Didier Dormont, Nadya PyatigorskayaAbstractArterial Spin Labeling (ASL) is prone to a number of artifacts, which may affect its diagnostic accuracy. To avoid these pitfalls, possible effects on the ASL measurements should be identified. Perfusion asymmetry in the posterior cerebral artery (PCA) territory may be induced by the fetal-type PCA. Whenever a posterior left-right asymmetry is observed on the ASL, structural MR images should be taken into account to rule out cerebrovascular path...

T2-highlighted U-fibres and rapid parenchymal volume loss in AESD: an under-recognised subtype of paediatric acute encephalopathy syndromes
We present three paediatric cases from a tertiary paediatric neurosciences centre in xxxxx with characteristic subcortical signal change, and furthermore, follow up imaging which in all 3 patients demonstrated a varying degree of cerebral atrophy. We recommend that children presenting with prolonged seizures should be considered for MR imaging ideally after 48 hours if clinically stable, and early MR imaging follow-up (at 2-3 months) be performed routinely in patients with AED to assess for presence and degree of parenchymal volume loss for prognostication and to start neuroprotective therapy.

Simmons Angled microguidewire INsertion to the Target (SAINT) technique in neuroendovascular therapy
Publication date: Available online 26 September 2019Source: Journal of NeuroradiologyAuthor(s): Bikei Ryu, Shinsuke Sato, Tatsuya Inoue, Yoshikazu Okada, Yasunari NiimiAbstractAdvancing appropriate microcatheters is essential for treatment. However, we still encounter inaccessible arterial branches because of the anatomical arrangement. While many successful techniques regarding microcatheters have been reported, there have been very few reports of microguidewire-shaping techniques. We developed the Simmons-Angled microguidewire INsertion to the Target (SAINT) technique for insertion of the microguidewire into inaccessible...
