Introduction: [61Cu]diacetyl-bis(N4-methylthiosemicarbazone) ([61Cu]ATSM) is a well-established hypoxia imaging tracer with simple production and significant specifity. In this work the accumulation of the tracer is studied in wild-type, necrotic and hypoxic fibrosarcoma tumors. Methods: [61Cu]ATSM was prepared u...

Abstract Background: Brain tumors are fatal malignancies which are frequently associated with psychiatric and behavioural manifestation that should be noticed. Studies suggest that the primary psychiatric dysfunctions are associated with brain tumors in 47-94 % of cases. Case report: A 26-year single woman with neuropsychic symptoms was under the drug therapy with antipsychotic, as well as sed...

Abstract Objectives Brain imaging techniques have broadened our understanding of structural and functional properties neuronal networks in children with developmental disabilities. The present work examines current models response implicated dyslexia reading difficulties. Methods This review analyzes the use (fMRI EEG) employed assessment markers associated ability. Results Neuro-imaging studie...

Introduction: Bacterial meningitis is an acute infectious inflammation of the protective membranes covering the brain. Its early diagnosis is vital because of its high morbidity and mortality. It is mostly diagnosed by a gold standard diagnostic tool i.e. Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) analysis. However, it is sometimes difficult and or impossible to do this procedure and an alternative diagnostic t...

functional magnetic resonance imaging (fmri) has become the most popular method for imaging of brain functions. currently, there is a large variety of software packages for the analysis of fmri data, each providing many features for users. since there is no single package that can provide all the necessary analyses for the fmri data, it is helpful to know the features of each software package. ...

Introduction: This study was aimed to investigate the beneficial effects of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data in treatment planning for patients with CNS tumors in order to decrease the injury of functional regions of the brain followed by increase in life quality and survival of patients. This study pursues a novel approach in planning for the treatment of brai...

we report a patient diagnosed with whipple's disease (wd) who presented only with neurological symptoms. neuroimaging (mri) showed lesions with marked mass effect similar to infiltrative tumors, which were hypersignal on long tr and hyposignal on short tr images, located in several areas of the brain. in serial controls, lesions resolved with gliosis and atrophic changes as well as migration of...

abstract introduction: it is demonstrated that the degree of clinical improvement in parkinson's disease (pd) achieved by deep brain stimulation (dbs) is largely dependent on the accuracy of lead placement. in addition, individual variability in the situation of subthalamic nucleus (stn) is responsible for spatial inter-individual fluctuations of the real patient's target. objective: our study ...
