A Complete Constellation of Nervous System Lesions of NF2: Imaging Evaluation

A Case Report of Primary Angiitis of the Central Nervous System

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Primary angiitis of the central nervous system (PACNS) is an inflammatory vasculitis with very low frequency and prevalence. It is not clear why the inflammatory process of this disease is limited to cerebrovascular disease without systemic manifestations. A case of primary angiitis of the central nervous system with cerebrovascular manifestations is reported here.  C...

Is Hemorrhagic Demyelinating Lesions of Central Nervous System a Spectrum?

The Assessment of Structural Changes in MS Plaques and Normal Appearing White Matter Using Quantitative Magnetization Transfer Imaging (MTI)

Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS), affecting mostly young people at a mean age of 30 years. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is one of the most specific and sensitive methods in diagnosing and detecting the evolution of multiple sclerosis disease. But it does not have the ability to differentiate between distinct histopathologic...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Central Nervous System and Paranasal Sinuses in Multiple Sclerosis Patients: Findings from a Survey of Clinical Records in Kermanshah Province

Background and Objectives: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common demyelinating disease of the central nervous system with more than 5.2 million people across the world being afflicted with. Magnetic Resonance Im‌aging (MRI) is a valuable tool in the diagnosis of MS. This study surveys the results of MRI of the central nervous system and paranasal sinuses in the sample of MS patients in Ker...

Multiple Sclerosis Lesions Segmentation in Magnetic Resonance Imaging using Ensemble Support Vector Machine (ESVM)

Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) syndrome is a type of Immune-Mediated disorder in the central nervous system (CNS) which destroys myelin sheaths, and results in plaque (lesion) formation in the brain. From the clinical point of view, investigating and monitoring information such as position, volume, number, and changes of these plaques are integral parts of the controlling process this dise...
