MRI for all: Cheap portable scanners aim to revolutionize medical imaging
.news-article__hero--featured .parallax__element{ object-position: 47% 50%; -o-object-position: 47% 50%; } The patient, a man in his 70s with a shock of silver hair, lies in the neuro intensive care unit (neuro ICU) at Yale New Haven Hospital. Looking at him, you’d never know that a few days earlier a tumor was removed from his pituitary gland. The operation didn’t leave a mark because, as is standard, surgeons reached the tumor through his nose. He chats cheerfully with a pair of research associates who have come to check his progress with a new and potentially revolutionary device they are testing. The cylind...

Clot-targeted magnetic hyperthermia permeabilizes blood clots to make them more susceptible to thrombolysis
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates that clot-targeted MH can enhance the thrombolysis of contracted human blood clots and can be safely applied to enhance the timeframe in which thrombolysis is effective.PMID:35950914 | DOI:10.1111/jth.15846

E-205 In vitro evaluation of full-length, mr-safe interventional passive catheter markers at 3T
ConclusionAlthough worst-case artifacts were observed at 90°, they remained acceptable for use in guide catheters. Additionally, 20-mm marker separation could provide distinct artifacts down the length of a catheter during MRI-guided interventions, despite anatomic tortuosity. The phantom used in this study was shallow, which limited the ability to distinguish between real artifacts and those arising from the solution-air interface. Hence, accuracy of the degree of increased artifact may warrant further investigation. This study simulated worst-case orientations in vitro; more data should be collected in vivo using rea...

Bibliometric Analysis of Ferroptosis in Stroke From 2013 to 2021
Conclusion: Further exploration of the mechanisms of crosstalk between ferroptosis and other programmed cell death may improve clinical applications and therapeutic effects against stroke. Scholars will also continue to pay attention to and be interested in the hot topic “ferroptosis in stroke”, to produce more exciting results and provide new insights into the bottleneck of stroke treatment.

Dynamic changes of inflammation and apoptosis in  cerebral ischemia‑reperfusion injury in mice investigated by ferumoxytol‑enhanced magnetic resonance imaging.
Dynamic changes of inflammation and apoptosis in cerebral ischemia‑reperfusion injury in mice investigated by ferumoxytol‑enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. Mol Med Rep. 2021 Apr;23(4): Authors: Zhuang L, Kong Y, Yang S, Lu F, Gong Z, Zhan S, Liu M Abstract The inflammatory response and apoptosis are key factors in cerebral ischemia‑reperfusion injury. The severity of the inflammatory reaction and apoptosis has an important impact on the prognosis of stroke. The ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide particle has provided an effective magnetic resonance molecular imaging method for dynamic ...

Dynamic changes of inflammation and apoptosis in  cerebral ischemia‑reperfusion injury in mice investigated by ferumoxytol‑enhanced magnetic resonance imaging
Mol Med Rep. 2021 Apr;23(4):1-13. doi: 10.3892/mmr.2021.11921. Epub 2021 Feb 19.ABSTRACTThe inflammatory response and apoptosis are key factors in cerebral ischemia‑reperfusion injury. The severity of the inflammatory reaction and apoptosis has an important impact on the prognosis of stroke. The ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide particle has provided an effective magnetic resonance molecular imaging method for dynamic observation of the cell infiltration process in vivo. The aims of the present study were to investigate the inflammatory response of cerebral ischemia‑reperfusion injury in mice using ferumoxytol‑...

Hydroxyurea reduces cerebral metabolic stress in patients with sickle cell anemia
Chronic transfusion therapy (CTT) prevents stroke in selected patients with sickle cell anemia (SCA). We have shown that CTT mitigates signatures of cerebral metabolic stress, reflected by elevated oxygen extraction fraction (OEF), which likely drives stroke risk reduction. The region of highest OEF falls within the border zone, where cerebral blood flow (CBF) nadirs; OEF in this region was reduced after CTT. The neuroprotective efficacy of hydroxyurea (HU) remains unclear. To test our hypothesis that patients receiving HU therapy have lower cerebral metabolic stress compared with patients not receiving disease-modifying t...
