Isolated cortical vein thrombosis (ICVT) is extremely rare. Only single case or small series of ICVT have been reported; clinical details are still uncertain. We report a case of isolated superficial sylvian vein thrombosis with exceedingly long cord sign. A 14-year-old female with severe sudden onset headache visited our hospital. Fluid attenuated inversion recovery and echo-planar T2(*) susce...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Bilateral posterior PNH is a distinctive complex malformation with imaging features distinguishing it from classic bilateral PNH associated with FLNA mutations. The purpose of this study was to define the imaging features of posterior bilateral periventricular nodular heterotopia and to determine whether associated brain malformations suggest specific subcategories. MAT...

Introduction-Polymicrogyria is a malformation of cortical development in which the process normal cerebral disturbed late stage neuronal migration. Deeper layers cortex develop abnormally and multiple small gyri form within cortex. Polymicrogyria (PMG) characterized by supernumerary, with abnormal lamination. Malformations (MCD) comprise large group disorders resulting from defects formation th...

Ultrasound-based assessment of the fetal nervous system is routinely recommended at time mid-trimester anatomy scan or different gestations based on clinical indications. This review evaluates methodological quality studies aimed creating charts for brain structures obtained by ultrasound, as poor methodology could explain substantial variability in percentiles reported. Electronic databases (M...

OBJECTIVES To determine reference ranges for measurements of fetal cerebral fissures by 3-dimensional (3D) sonography in the multiplanar mode and to evaluate the reliability and concordance of these measurements. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted on 393 women with normal pregnancies at 22 weeks to 33 weeks 6 days. The distances between the internal bone plate of the fetal calvaria...

In this event-related fMRI study, 12 right-handed volunteers heard human laughter, sentential speech, and nonvocal sounds in which global temporal and harmonic information were varied whilst they were performing a simple auditory target detection. This study aimed to delineate distinct peri-auditory regions which preferentially respond to laughter, speech, and nonvocal sounds. Results show that...
