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.

MRI findings suggest parts of the brain reorganize to become 'younger' after a stroke
The finding could signal that the brain has the potential to heal itself in the long-term after a stroke.
MRI findings detail how a 'leaky' barrier can damage the brain years after head injuries
New evidence suggests the BBB can remain compromised following a head injury, even years after it first occurred.
PET scans offer insight into how ketamine affects depression
Thanks to a newly developed radiotracer and PET imaging, experts believe they may have unearthed new insights on the drug's impact.
FDA clears AI triage tool that detects acute infarcts on noncontrast CT scans
Unlike many stroke detection applications on the market, this model covers six vascular territories and mechanisms of infarct.
MRI findings detail distinct ADHD subtypes
Findings from the study provide new insight into the heterogeneity of the disorder, which could help explain why some children seem to respond better to common treatments than others.

AI tool helps identify 'invisible' head injuries on MRIs of college athletes

The tool uses a machine learning technique to identify changes on brain MRIs that would otherwise be overlooked by radiologists due to the subtlety of alterations.

Physical activity is linked to smaller brain bleeds, new CT data reveal

The research, published in Stroke and Vascular Neurology, suggests that just four hours of physical activity per week can reduce the significance of a brain bleed.

Radioactive substances unnecessary in new method for measuring brain glucose metabolism

Rather than administering radiolabeled glucose for exams, imagers give patients a small amount of a harmless glucose solution that is said to be equivalent to a can of a carbonated drink.

MRI and PET findings could guide treatment of lingering concussion symptoms

Abnormalities of the thalamus could be to blame for persistent symptoms in the months following a concussion, according to new research.

Industry first: FDA clears device for detecting stroke on noncontrast CT

RapidAI said it aims to give smaller facilities access to tools often only available at comprehensive stroke centers.

COVID long-haulers with loss of smell display brain connectivity impairments on MRI

Experts recently identified alterations in regions of the brain that process smell in COVID long-haulers.

brain connections that cause epileptic seizures

Experts use MRI to identify brain pathways responsible for epileptic seizures

Patients who have these pathways disconnected record marked seizure-free periods of time in the long-term, according to new research.

Imaging required to monitor effects of new Alzheimer's drug could inhibit its uptake

Leqembi can cause amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA), which must be assessed on imaging.
