ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Silent brain infarcts (SBIs), which manifest as dot-like lesions on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) after endovascular procedures, are associated with an increased risk of stroke, dementia, and cognitive decline. We aimed to identify...

ABSTRACT Background and Purpose MRI is crucial for multiple sclerosis (MS), but the relative value of portable ultra-low field MRI (pULF-MRI), a technology that holds promise for extending access to MRI, is unknown. We assessed white matter lesion (WML) detection on...

ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Prolonged venous transit (PVT), derived from computed tomography perfusion (CTP) time-to-maximum (T max) maps, reflects compromised venous outflow (VO) in acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion (AIS-LVO). Poor VO is...
