- Imaging Findings in Giant Cell Arteritis: Don’t Turn a Blind Eye to the Obvious!
This pictorial review discusses the various cranial, extracranial, and orbital manifestations of giant cell arteritis on various imaging modalities, including ultrasound, vessel wall imaging, and CTA/MRA.
- Vestibular Schwannoma–Related Increased Labyrinthine Postgadolinium 3D-FLAIR Signal Intensity and Association with Hearing Impairment
Increased 3D-FLAIR postgadolinium signal intensity of the ipsilateral labyrinth associated with vestibular schwannoma was shown to be correlated with sensorineural hearing loss. The study found that measured intralabyrinthine signal is associated with greater degrees of sensorineural hearing loss on audiometry.
- The Many Faces of Myxopapillary Ependymomas
This clinical report identified the spectrum of MRI characteristics and pathologic patterns of myxopapillary ependymomas. Histopathologic analysis identified a microcystic pattern in larger tumors and a solid pattern in the 4 smaller tumors. The findings suggest a possible association between cases with drop metastases and cases of large tumors with a microcystic pattern.
