Neuroimaging

Neuroradiology is a branch of medical imaging focused on spotting abnormalities of the central and peripheral nervous system, spine, head and neck. These highly trained doctors use CT, MRI, X-ray and other techniques to diagnose strokes, tumors, aneurysms and other neurological conditions.

MRIs show how peanut consumption improves the brain's vascular function
Consistently incorporating unsalted peanuts into a person’s diet enhances cerebral blood flow to multiple brain regions.
MRI findings could hint at early development of CTE
Currently, chronic traumatic encephalopathy can only be diagnosed post-mortem via brain tissue assessment during an autopsy.
FDA clears AI solution for identifying large vessel occlusions on CTA
If left untreated, LVOs can cause ischemic strokes. The algorithm has the potential to significantly reduce time to treatment in these emergency scenarios.
Imaging offers insight into impact of new Alzheimer's treatment from Eli Lilly
Emerging research provides further evidence that amyloid-removal treatment for Alzheimer’s effectively slows cognitive decline.

Imaging markers of brain frailty linked to functional outcomes in stroke patients

Such baseline neuroimaging markers could provide clues into how patients will respond to treatment, and thrombolysis in particular.

An imaging AI 'epilepsy detective' could help cure treatment-resistant seizures

The tool can identify small focal cortical dysplasia on imaging that is typically missed by radiologists, bottom-of-sulcus dysplasia in particular.
