Circumferential Wall Enhancement on Magnetic Resonance Imaging is Useful to Identify Rupture Site in Patients with Multiple Cerebral Aneurysms.

abstract：OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE:Four rare cases of central nervous system solitary fibrous tumors (C-SoFTs) are described. This tumor has not previously been reported in children or in deep cortical structures. Three of these tumors occurred in the posterior fossa. Only four cases in the posterior fossa have been described pr...

abstract：:Intraoperative ultrasound can aid the biopsy of deep intracranial lesions. It is, perhaps, less clear whether ultrasound could be useful in functional neurosurgery, where the target is not abnormal in echogenicity. As an example, we chose to investigate in a dog model the periventricular gray target, which is frequent...
