As a sequel of brain ischemia, selective neuronal loss (SNL)—as opposed to pannecrosis
(ie infarction)—is attracting growing interest, particularly because it is now detectable in vivo …

The early developments of brain positron emission tomography (PET), including the
methodological advances that have driven progress, are outlined. The considerable past …

Cryptogenic (of unknown cause) ischaemic strokes are now thought to comprise about 25%
of all ischaemic strokes. Advances in imaging techniques and improved understanding of …

Atherosclerotic carotid artery stenosis causes about 10–20% of all ischemic strokes through
two main mechanisms: hemodynamic impairment in case of significant stenosis and …

Purpose To conduct a systematic review of articles on PET imaging of carotid
atherosclerosis with emphasis on clinical usefulness and comparison with other imaging …

Depending on the adequacy of collateral sources of blood flow, arterial stenosis or occlusion
may lead to reduced perfusion pressure and ultimately reduced blood flow in the distal …

Abstract 'True'transient ischaemic attacks are characterized not only clinically, but also
radiologically by a lack of corresponding changes on magnetic resonance imaging. During a …

Background Relatively little is known about the plaque characteristics of border-zone infarcts
and how they differ between cortical border-zone (CBZ) and internal border-zone (IBZ) …

INTRODUCTION: The aim of our study was to analyze the ultrasound characteristics of
carotid plaques in an outpatient population and to determine their implications for planning …

Background and Purpose—Deep watershed infarcts are frequent in high-grade carotid
disease and are thought to result from hemodynamic impairment, particularly when adopting …
