by Clinical Neuropsychologist | Wednesday, October 1, 2025 | Neuroimaging

ABSTRACT Cancer predisposition syndromes (CPSs) are a group of inherited disorders that significantly increase the risk of developing various cancers, ranging from infancy through adulthood. CPSs account for about 10% of the pediatric cancers, and they represent a...

Prolonged Venous Transit Is Associated With Unfavorable Outcomes in Anterior Circulation Distal Medium Vessel Stroke

by Clinical Neuropsychologist | Monday, September 22, 2025 | Neuroimaging

ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Distal medium-vessel occlusion (DMVO) strokes represent a significant proportion of acute ischemic stroke cases, yet optimal management remains unclear. Prolonged venous transit (PVT), a marker of poor venous outflow, has been...

Spinal and Sacral Chordomas: Overview With Imaging Review

by Clinical Neuropsychologist | Tuesday, September 16, 2025 | Neuroimaging

ABSTRACT Spinal chordomas are rare, malignant bone tumors originating from notochordal remnants, primarily affecting the sacrum, clivus, and spine. Despite their low prevalence, they present significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to their local...

Multivariate Pattern Analysis of Perfusion and Oxygenation Impairment in Asymptomatic Carotid Artery Stenosis

by Clinical Neuropsychologist | Monday, September 15, 2025 | Neuroimaging

ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Hemodynamic impairment may contribute to stroke risk and cognitive decline in asymptomatic internal carotid artery stenosis (ICAS). Therefore, multimodal MRI-based quantification of hemodynamic impairment could inform improved treatment...

Association of Spinal Cord Radiomic Features and Disability in Multiple Sclerosis

by Clinical Neuropsychologist | Monday, September 15, 2025 | Neuroimaging

ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Spinal cord pathology underpins disability accumulation in people with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). Visual inspection of spinal cord magentic resonance imaging (MRI) often fails to reliably detect injury. Radiomics analyzes signal...

A Novel Convolutional Neural Network for Automated Multiple Sclerosis Brain Lesion Segmentation

by Clinical Neuropsychologist | Friday, September 12, 2025 | Neuroimaging

ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Assessment of brain lesions on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is crucial for research in multiple sclerosis (MS). Manual segmentation is time-consuming and inconsistent. We aimed to develop an automated MS lesion segmentation...
