Bilateral Transradial Approach for Coil Embolization of Basilar Artery Aneurysms Associated with an Unfavorable Vertebral Artery Anatomy
ConclusionThe role-sharing technique was shown to be a  feasible and safe method for coil embolization of BA aneurysms associated with an unfavorable VA anatomy. This method may increase the success rate of transradial coil embolization for BA aneurysms. (Source: Klinische Neuroradiologie)

Utility of Time-Variant Multiphase CTA Color Maps in Outcome Prediction for Acute Ischemic Stroke Due to Anterior Circulation Large Vessel Occlusion
ConclusionIn this study, collateral extent assessment on time-variant mCTA maps improved prediction of good outcome and has similar value in predicting follow-up infarct volume compared to conventional mCTA collateral grading. (Source: Klinische Neuroradiologie)

Standard Diffusion-weighted MRI for the Diagnosis of Central Retinal Artery Occlusion
ConclusionsRetinal diffusion restrictions were present in a  majority of CRAO patients and detectable with reasonable sensitivity, high specificity and substantial inter-rater reliability. Further studies are necessary to study time dependency of retinal diffusion restrictions, improve image quality and investigate the reliability of retinal DWI to discern CRAO from other causes of acute loss of vision.

Reasons for Failed Mechanical Thrombectomy in Posterior Circulation Ischemic Stroke Patients
ConclusionFailure of MT in posterior circulation ischemic stroke patients is associated with a  high mortality rate. Reasons for MT failure are diverse with futile vascular access and MT failure after passing the vessel occlusion as the leading causes. Alternative vascular access, local i.a. thrombolysis and stent-assisted PTA can prevent MT failure. (Source: Klinische Neuroradiologie)

Role of Susceptibility-Weighted Imaging in Detecting Retinal Hemorrhages in Children with Head Trauma
ConclusionOur results suggest that SWI is a  useful diagnostic tool for detection of RH in pediatric head trauma in whom DFE is difficult to perform. (Source: Klinische Neuroradiologie)

Casper vs. Closed-Cell Stent
ConclusionThe Casper stents did not show superiority in the rate of incidence, number and size of new silent ischemic brain lesions detect by DW-MRI when compared to close cell stents during CAS under distal EPD. (Source: Klinische Neuroradiologie)

Leave Nothing Behind: Treatment of Intracranial Atherosclerotic Disease with Drug-Coated Balloon Angioplasty
ConclusionIn this study, the application of DCBs to treat ICAD patients was feasible and safe. A  larger scale clinical trial is warranted to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of this treatment. (Source: Klinische Neuroradiologie)

Microstructural Alterations Analogous to Accelerated Aging of the Cerebral Cortex in Carotid Occlusive Disease
ConclusionUnilateral high-grade carotid occlusive disease is associated with widespread cortical thinning and prolongation of cortical qT2, presumably reflecting hypoperfusion-related microstructural cortical damage similar to accelerated aging of the cerebral cortex. Cortical thinning and increase of cortical qT2 seem to reflect different aspects and different pathophysiological states of cortical degeneration. Quantitative T2 mapping might be a  sensitive imaging biomarker for early cortical microstructural damage. (Source: Klinische Neuroradiologie)

Antiplatelet Drugs for Neurointerventions: Part  1 Clinical Pharmacology
AbstractThe development of endovascular treatment for intracranial aneurysms has established new techniques such as balloon and stent-assistance, flow diversion and endosaccular occlusion devices. Antiplatelet treatment is an important aspect to reduce risk of thrombus formation on microcatheters and implanted devices when utilizing these methods. It is particularly relevant for flow diverting stents to prevent early and late stent thrombosis. Consideration of platelet physiology and appropriate selection of antiplatelet medication is important as platelet dysfunction drives many of the pathological processes and complicat...

Sequelae of Premature Birth in Young Adults
ConclusionEnlargement of the LVV and deep and periventricular WMLs are typical sequelae of premature birth that can be appreciated on routine brain MRI. To increase sensitivity of abnormal LVV detection, measurement of FOHR seems feasible in clinical practice. (Source: Klinische Neuroradiologie)
