Objectives Balanced steady-state free precession-based quiescent-interval slice-selective (bSSFP QISS) magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is accurate for the noncontrast evaluation of peripheral arterial disease (PAD); however, drawbacks include the need for breath-holding when imaging the abdomen and pelvis, and sensitivity to off-resonance artifacts. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the image quality and diagnostic accuracy in the pelvis and abdomen of free-breathing fast low-angle...

Abstract Children with optic pathway gliomas (OPGs) frequently suffer from problems of visual function resulting from tumors. Previous reports showed that bevacizumab improved visual function in patients with OPG via tumor response to treatment. In these two case reports, we show that bevacizumab improved visual field without tumor response as seen in imaging. Both, a 10-year-old girl and a 6-year-old boy, had previous history of treatment with platinum-based chemotherapy. They...

Abstract Introduction Dolichoarteriopathies of the internal carotid artery (DICA) are frequent non-atheromatous anatomical changes in the general population. The etiology of DICA is still controversial: several hypotheses have been suggested, including an anomaly of embryological development, or a degenerative loss of elasticity of the vessel wall. DICA have been related to a wide spectrum of clinical presentations in adults, varying from...

Abstract Penetrating head injuries are rare, but can cause severe morbidity in children. In particular, penetrating head trauma with a wooden foreign body is considered to be likely to cause central nervous system infections because of its porosity and softness. However, actually confirming minute contaminations, such as skin debris or hair, in the brain parenchyma is rare. We report the case of a 2-year-old boy who presented with a penetrating head injury by a chopstick. During...

Abstract Fetal ventriculomegaly refers to a condition in which there is enlargement of the ventricular spaces, typically on prenatal ultrasound. It can be associated with other CNS or extra-CNS abnormalities, and this relationship is crucial to understand as it affects overall neonatal outcome. Isolated ventriculomegaly has been described in the literature with variable clinical outcome. Typically, outcome is based on the etiology and degree of ventriculomegaly. When associated...

Abstract Port wine stains (PWSs) are congenital vascular malformations that progressively darken and thicken with age. Currently, laser therapy is the most effective way in clinical management of PWS. It is known that skin pigmentation (melanin content) affects the radiant exposure that can be safely applied to treat PWS. However, the effect of melanin distribution in the epidermis on the maximum safe radiant exposure has not been studied previously. In this study, 10 different...
