Value of Contrast-Enhanced FLAIR Images for the Depiction of Papilledema
Teaching Point: Contrast-enhanced FLAIR images have unsurpassed value for the radiological depiction of hypertensive papilledema. FLAIR acquisition should therefore be performed after intravenous contrast, especially in the of work-up of intracranial hypertension and/or tumor.

Case Series: Pulmonary Artery Intramural Hematoma in Stanford Type A Acute Aortic Dissection
Main Teaching Point: Diagnosing acute ascending aortic dissection in patients with equivocal radiologic data may rely on associated findings such as pulmonary artery intramural hematoma.The immediate diagnosis of aortic dissection is paramount in its management. Its diagnosis may be challenging on computed tomography when the intimal flap, pathognomonic of dissection, is not readily visualized. Pulmonary artery intramural hematoma may arise from rupture of the posterior wall of the ascending aorta into the common aortopulmonary adventitia as a result of acute dissection. The clinical significance of pulmonary artery hemato...
