Assessing Cortical Cerebral Microinfarcts on High Resolution MR Images
Published on: November 20, 2015
Abstract:
In a group of 27 patients with spontaneously developing intracerebal haematomas in three cases small angiomas of the brain were demonstrated at angiography, operation and microscopic examination. In two cases presence of such microangioma was suspected. In all five patients good results were obtained after operation. Attention is called to difficulties in clinical, angiographic and even surgical diagnosis of cerebral microangioma.

01:17Hemorrhagic Stroke l: Introduction
A hemorrhagic stroke is an acute neurological event that occurs when a weakened cerebral blood vessel ruptures, allowing blood to accumulate within or around the brain. The sudden release of blood forms a focal hematoma that increases intracranial pressure, displaces neural tissue, and can obstruct cerebrospinal fluid pathways. These effects may be compounded by intraventricular extension of the hemorrhage, cerebral edema, or compression of adjacent structures, all of which contribute to...
01:22Cerebral Edema ll: Pathophysiology
Vasogenic edema is a major form of cerebral edema characterized by abnormal accumulation of fluid in the brain’s extracellular space due to disruption of the blood–brain barrier (BBB). The BBB is a specialized structure composed of endothelial cells connected by tight junctions, supported by astrocytic endfeet and a basement membrane. Under normal conditions, it tightly regulates the movement of ions, proteins, and solutes between the bloodstream and brain parenchyma. When this barrier loses...
