Ultrashort Echo Time Magnetic Resonance Angiography in Follow-up of Intracranial Aneurysms Treated With Endovascular Coiling: Comparison of Time-of-Flight, Pointwise Encoding Time Reduction With Radial Acquisition, and Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance

abstract：:An animal model was developed for studying the pharmacokinetics of antibiotics administered intraventricularly in hydrocephalus. Obstructive hydrocephalus was consistently produced in craniectomized adult rats by injecting kaolin into the cisterna magna. After induction of hydrocephalus, vancomycin was injected into t...
