BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cerebral thermoregulation remains poorly understood. Temperature dysregulation is deeply implicated in the potentiation of cerebrovascular ischemia. We present a multiphasic, MR thermographic study in a nonhuman primate model of MCA infarction, hypothesizing detectable brain temperature disturbances and brain-systemic temperature decoupling. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three ...

Traumatic brain injury is a common entity. However cerebral infarction in infants is a rare entity while the diagnosis of this pathology in the pediatric population is usually difficult. The mild head trauma is rarely accompanied by intracranial injury and even less, with cerebral infarction. We herein report the first case of cerebral infarction after a mild brain trauma in a 2-year-old Latin-...

Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension (SIH) is usually due to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak, resulting in loss of CSF volume. Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) the inability posterior circulation brain autoregulate response significant variation blood pressure. Altered perfusion with associated blood-brain barrier disruption may lead vasogenic edema, without infarction, common...
