  2. Atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atypical_teratoid_rhabdoid...

    The rate of transcription for SWI/SNF and HDAC complexes seem to be regulated by the INI1 gene. The SWI/SNF complex plays a role in chromatin remodeling. AT/RT is the first pediatric brain tumor for which a candidate tumor suppressor gene has been identified. A mutation or deletion in the INI1/hSNF5 gene occurs in the majority of AT/RT tumors ...

  3. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_imaging...

    The first study of the human brain at 3.0 T was published in 1994, [13] and in 1998 at 8 T. [14] Studies of the human brain have been performed at 9.4 T (2006) [15] and up to 10.5 T (2019). [ 16 ] Paul Lauterbur and Sir Peter Mansfield were awarded the 2003 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discoveries concerning MRI.

    For the diagnosis, brain scans (such as MRI) should be done to rule out other potential causes. Specialty: Neurology: Symptoms: Headache, vision problems, ringing in the ears with the heartbeat [1] [2] Complications: Vision loss [2] Usual onset: 20–50 years old [2] Risk factors: Hypervitaminosis A, obesity, tetracyclines [1] [2] Diagnostic method

  5. In vivo magnetic resonance spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_vivo_magnetic_resonance...

    In vivo magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a specialized technique associated with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). [1] [2]Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), also known as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, is a non-invasive, ionizing-radiation-free analytical technique that has been used to study metabolic changes in brain tumors, strokes, seizure disorders, Alzheimer's ...

  6. Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid-attenuated_inversion...

    For example, it can be used in brain imaging to suppress cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) effects on the image, so as to bring out the periventricular hyperintense lesions, such as multiple sclerosis (MS) plaques. [1] It was invented by Graeme Bydder, Joseph Hajnal, and Ian Young in the early 1990's. [2]

  7. Resting state fMRI - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resting_state_fMRI

    Functional connectivity MRI (fcMRI), which can include resting state fMRI and task-based MRI, might someday help provide more definitive diagnoses for mental health disorders such as bipolar disorder and may also aid in understanding the development and progression of post-traumatic stress disorder as well as evaluate the effect of treatment. [24]

  8. Cerebrospinal fluid flow MRI - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebrospinal_Fluid_Flow_MRI

    The key to Phase-contrast MRI (PC-MRI) is the use of a bipolar gradient. [4] A bipolar gradient has equal positive and negative magnitudes that are applied for the same time duration. The bipolar gradient in PC-MRI is put in a sequence after RF excitation but before data collection during the echo time of the generic MRI modality.

  9. Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion-weighted...

    Diffusion imaging is an MRI method that produces in vivo magnetic resonance images of biological tissues sensitized with the local characteristics of molecular diffusion, generally water (but other moieties can also be investigated using MR spectroscopic approaches). [15]
