High resolution magnetic resonance imaging for exposing facial nerve zonal vulnerability to microbleeds: A rare cause of facial palsy Open
Background We report a case of hypertensive microbleeds strategically located at the attached segment (AS) and root entry zone (REZ) at the left facial nerve causing facial paralysis. Case Report A 60-year-old woman presented with sudden o…

Susceptibility weighted imaging in acute cerebral ischemia: review of emerging technical concepts and clinical applications Open
Susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) is an essential magnetic resonance imaging sequence in the assessment of acute ischemic stroke. In this article, we discuss the physics principals and clinical application of conventional SWI and multi…

Serial magnetic resonance imaging findings of intracerebral spread of listeria utilising subcortical U-fibres and the extreme capsule Open
We present a case of Listeria monocytogenes cerebral abscess with axonal spread via the subcortical U-fibres and extreme capsule on magnetic resonance imaging, with follow-up studies demonstrating serial reduction in oedema and enhancement…

Duplication of the superficial femoral artery: comprehensive review of imaging literature and insight into embryology Open
An extremely rare case of duplicated superficial femoral artery (SFA) was incidentally observed on computed tomography angiogram (CTA) of the lower limbs for presurgical planning for an osteomyocutaneous fibula flap in a patient with T4a o…

Principles and Clinical Application of Dual-energy Computed Tomography in the Evaluation of Cerebrovascular Disease Open
Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) simultaneously acquires images at two X-ray energy levels, at both high- and low-peak voltages (kVp). The material attenuation difference obtained from the two X-ray energies can be processed by softw…

18F-FDG PET/CT in a Patient With Glomus Vagale Paraganglioma and Eisenmenger Syndrome Open
There is emerging evidence linking cyanotic heart disease and pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma through a proposed hypoxia pathway. We present a 59-year-old woman with known Eisenmenger syndrome secondary to delayed diagnosis of ventricular s…
