  2. Diffuse neonatal hemangiomatosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuse_neonatal_hemangio...

    Second to the liver, the brain is the most common place for diffuse neonatal hemangiomatosis. With that being said, there have only been only 16 cases of cranial hemangioma. Nine out of the total 16 cases undergo neurological manifestations. With damage to the brain, the skin red discolorations are usually 0.5–1.5 centimeters.

  3. Dense MCA sign - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dense_MCA_sign

    The dense MCA sign is a dense artery sign observed on non-contrast computed tomography (CT) of the brain and is an important early marker of acute ischemic stroke involving the middle cerebral artery territory. [1] It refers to an abnormally increased attenuation (hyperdensity) of the MCA, reflecting an intraluminal thrombus or embolus.

    Feathery degeneration - large cells with pale flocculant cytoplasm (left-bottom and right-top).H&E stain.. In histo pathology, feathery degeneration, formally feathery degeneration of hepatocytes, is a form of liver parenchymal cell (i.e. hepatocyte) death associated with cholestasis.

  6. Leukoaraiosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leukoaraiosis

    [3] [4] On CT scans, leukoaraiosis appears as hypodense periventricular white-matter lesions. [ 5 ] The term "leukoaraiosis" was coined in 1986 [ 6 ] [ 7 ] by Hachinski , Potter, and Merskey as a descriptive term for rarefaction ("araiosis") of the white matter, showing up as decreased density on CT and increased signal intensity on T2/FLAIR ...

  7. Encephalomalacia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encephalomalacia

    Yellow softening is the third type of cerebral softening. As its name implies, the affected softened areas of the brain have a yellow appearance. This yellow appearance is due to atherosclerotic plaque build-up in interior brain arteries coupled with yellow lymph around the choroid plexus, which occurs in specific instances of brain trauma. [2]

    A CT scan is the best test to look for bleeding in or around your brain. In some hospitals, a perfusion CT scan may be done to see where the blood is flowing and not flowing in your brain. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI scan): A special MRI technique (diffusion MRI) may show evidence of an ischemic stroke within minutes of symptom onset. In ...
