While strokes are widely recognized as a major cause of long-term disability in the United States, their quieter cousin, the ...

Replacing defective microglia can halt ALSP—a fatal neurodegenerative disease—in mice and humans, offering hope for broader brain therapies.

To simulate blood flow inside brain aneurysms, researchers from Japan have developed a computational method that combines 4D flow MRI, computational fluid dynamics, and data assimilation, which ...

A novel MRI-based ‘aging’ clock may offer a simple way to identify patients whose biological age is outpacing their ...

Adult-onset leukoencephalopathy with axonal spheroids and pigmented glia (ALSP) is a progressive neurological disease with an ...

People who spend less time in deep sleep or rapid eye movement (REM) sleep may be at greater risk for brain changes linked to Alzheimer’s disease. A new study published in the Journal of Clinical ...

Researchers have demonstrated the safety of using high field strength magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with the 11.7 tesla (T) Iseult MRI machine, in humans, testing physiological, vestibular, ...

Over the last decade, the sequence of multiecho gradient recalled echo (GRE) T2*-weighted imaging has shown the loss of signal in terms of ‘black dots’ in patients who have spontaneous intra-cerebral ...

MRI of the head (figure) showed multiple lobar cortico-subcortical haemorrhages in both hemispheres and ubiquitous brain microbleeds throughout the cerebral cortex and cerebellum.

The researchers calculated enlarged perivascular spaces in the centrum semiovale (central area of white matter) and basal ganglia areas of the brain. White matter hyperintensities—lesions that “light ...

White matter hyperintensities—lesions that “light up” on MRI—were measured using the Fazekas scale. Cerebral microbleeds were rated with the microbleed anatomical rating scale.
