Article Abstract
Evaluate Magnetic Resonance (MR) and Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) sensibility in the diagnosis and follow-up of dissection of Internal Carotid and Vertebral Artery (ICA/VA). We revalued MR examination of 36 patients, 24 men, 12 women, aged 18-69 years. All patients underwent brain TC and MR (GE 1 Tesla); in 16 subjects 3D Time-of-Flight (TOF-3D) MRA was performed and in 20 subjects a Contrast-Enhanced MRA (CEMRA) of neck and head arteries. Thirty-one patients underwent a MRA follow-up. Dissection involved ICA in 30 and VA in 8. MR showed ischemic signs in 25 cases, wall hematoma in 19, and was normal in 11. MRA showed 25 vessels stenosis, 12 occlusions, and 9 aneurysm. Follow-up MRA showed 6 cases of complete resolution of stenosis, 17 partial resolution, 2 aneurysmal dissecanting, 6 luminal alteration unchanged, 1 aneurysma enlarged. MRA represented a non-invasive technique as investigation in suspected cervicocephalic arteries dissection.

Impact of Childhood Neighborhood Deprivation on White Matter and Functional Connectivity During Adolescence.

Background And Purpose: Socioeconomic determinants of health impact childhood development and adult health outcomes. One key aspect is the physical environment and neighborhood where children live and grow. Emerging evidence suggests that neighborhood deprivation, often measured by the Area Deprivation Index (ADI), may influence neurodevelopment, but longitudinal and multimodal neuroimaging analyses remain limited.

Interpreting BI-RADS-Free Breast MRI Reports Using a Large Language Model: Automated BI-RADS Classification From Narrative Reports Using ChatGPT.

Department of Radiology, Başakşehir Çam and Sakura City Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey (E.E.).
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the performance of ChatGPT (GPT-4o) in interpreting free-text breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reports by assigning BI-RADS categories and recommending appropriate clinical management steps in the absence of explicitly stated BI-RADS classifications.
Methods: In this retrospective, single-center study, a total of 352 documented full-text breast MRI reports of at least one identifiable breast lesion with descriptive imaging findings between January 2024 and June 2025 were included in the study. Incomplete reports due to technical limitations, reports describing only normal findings, and MRI examinations performed at external institutions were excluded from the study.
Autologous Fibrin Glue in Microvascular Decompression for Trigeminal Neuralgia and Hemifacial Spasm.

Adhesive materials are widely used in microvascular decompression for treating neurovascular compression syndromes. They play an important role in the critical step of vessel fixation. Recently, completely autologous fibrin glue produced solely from a patient's own plasma was developed.

Surgical treatment for tumors located at the third ventricle and/or hypothalamic regions is significantly challenging due to the surrounding crucial neural and vascular structures. In 2013, the transventricular preforniceal approach was reported for exophytic chiasmatic/hypothalamic astrocytomas extending into the anterior third ventricle. Although this approach may be safe and effective for selected patients, this approach can only be applied when the space between the anterior commissure and the fornix is stretched by the tumor.
