This document discusses hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) in pediatric patients. It covers:
1. HIE results from diminished cerebral blood flow and oxygenation, and can cause death or disability. Imaging findings vary based on brain maturity, insult severity and duration, and timing of imaging.
2. In neonates, deep gray matter structures and watershed zones are most susceptible. MRI within 24 hours can detect injury via diffusion restrictions. Later, T1 and T2 abnormalities emerge in injured areas.
3. In preterms, deep gray matter and brainstem are most commonly injured. Imaging may initially be normal but later show thalamic abnormalities on US and MRI diffusion. Mild insults commonly
This document discusses pediatric perinatal insult known as hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). It describes the pathophysiology of HIE, which involves diminished cerebral blood flow and reduced oxygenation. Imaging findings vary depending on factors like brain maturity, severity, and timing. Ultrasound, CT and MRI can detect abnormalities. On MRI, diffusion weighted imaging is most sensitive in the first 24 hours. Common patterns of injury include deep gray matter structures in preterm neonates and central gray matter in term neonates with severe asphyxia. Mild/moderate insults in preterms may cause intraventricular hemorrhage or periventricular leukomalacia. Imaging can detect injury and help assess prognosis.
Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is brain injury caused by lack of oxygen and blood flow around the time of birth. It can cause death or long-term disabilities like cerebral palsy. Diagnosis is based on clinical presentation and lab/imaging findings. Cranial ultrasound and MRI are useful imaging modalities. HIE is characterized by Sarnat stages ranging from hyperalert to stuporous. Prognosis depends on severity - mild cases often have no complications while severe cases have high mortality or serious disabilities.

This document discusses radiological imaging of neonatal acute ischemia and hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy. It describes different types of imaging techniques including CT, MRI, DWI, and ASL and how they can be used to identify areas of injury over time in neonates who experience a stroke. Risk factors for neonatal stroke are also reviewed. Imaging findings include restricted diffusion, cortical laminar necrosis, and reversal of gray-white matter attenuation on CT. MRI is useful for assessing injury to deep gray matter structures and cortical border zones.
Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) results from global reduction in blood flow, oxygen, or glucose to the brain. It depends on gestational age, duration of insult, and collateral circulation. In term infants, injury occurs in cortical and subcortical watershed zones, while preterm infants experience injury in deep periventricular white matter. Imaging findings include infarction, hemorrhage, edema, and in severe cases, multicystic encephalomalacia. Outcomes range from full recovery to death, with preterm infants having a worse prognosis. Treatment focuses on supportive care, seizure control, and managing brain edema. HIE remains an important cause of neonatal mortality and long-term neurological impairments
Clinically, more term babies suffered from hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) than premature babies. However, pathologically, more premature babies suffered from HIE than term babies. HIE manifests clinically as symptoms of consciousness changes that can be excitatory like seizures or depressing like coma.

1. Structural imaging such as CT and MRI are useful in evaluating dementia by identifying structural abnormalities and patterns of atrophy that help differentiate between neurodegenerative and vascular causes.
2. Specific scales have been developed to assess atrophy on MRI in regions implicated in different dementias, such as the medial temporal lobe atrophy scale for Alzheimer's disease.
3. Functional imaging with PET, SPECT and fMRI can provide additional metabolic and neural activity information, especially in distinguishing Alzheimer's from other dementias, but are not widely used due to limited availability.
Structural neuroimaging plays an important role in the assessment and diagnosis of different types of dementia. For Alzheimer's disease, MRI typically shows atrophy of the medial temporal lobes including the hippocampus. Vascular dementia is characterized by multiple brain infarcts visible on CT or MRI. Frontotemporal dementia demonstrates frontal and temporal lobe atrophy that can be asymmetric. Dementia with Lewy bodies may show mild generalized atrophy on MRI with occipital hypometabolism on PET. Scales like the MTA scale are used to quantify hippocampal atrophy, while MRS can detect metabolic changes in dementia. Neuroimaging thus aids in distinguishing dementia subtypes and excluding other pathological conditions.

This document provides a detailed overview of the radiologic anatomy and vascular supply of the small and large intestines. It discusses the anatomy and vascular supply of the duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, appendix, colon, and pancreas. It also describes some congenital anomalies of the pancreas, including agenesis of the dorsal pancreas. Key points include the locations and branches of the celiac axis, superior mesenteric artery, and inferior mesenteric artery, which supply the intestines, as well as anatomical landmarks like the ligament of Treitz.
Abdominal tuberculosis can affect several areas of the abdomen including the peritoneum, lymph nodes, gastrointestinal tract, and visceral organs. It is classified into categories such as tubercular peritonitis, tubercular lymphadenitis, gastrointestinal tuberculosis of the esophagus, stomach, duodenum, ileocecum, colon, and anorectum, as well as visceral tuberculosis of the liver, spleen, and pancreas. Key signs of gastrointestinal tuberculosis include widening of the duodenal C-loop, long duodenal strictures, pulled up cecum, and string signs in the ileocecum.
1) The document provides an overview of the radiologic anatomy of the small intestine and introduces small bowel obstruction. It describes the anatomy of the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum in detail.
2) Key findings that suggest small bowel obstruction on plain radiography include dilated bowel loops, increased number of fluid levels, and differential height of fluid levels. Sonography and CT are also used to identify and characterize obstruction.
3) CT is particularly useful for determining the level and cause of obstruction, as well as identifying complications like strangulation. It can distinguish high-grade from low-grade obstruction based on criteria like distal collapse and degree of dilatation.
The document discusses the multifaceted role of radiologists in modern healthcare. It summarizes that radiologists play an essential role in patient care through diagnosis and treatment, protect patients by ensuring appropriate and safe imaging, communicate complex findings, innovate through research, and teach future generations of radiologists. While radiology reports are an important part of their work, radiologists contribute much more broadly and their central role in healthcare could be misunderstood if viewed only as providers of imaging reports. The conclusion emphasizes that radiologists must promote recognition of the full breadth of their contributions beyond just interpretation to maintain their key position in patient care.
The document provides tips for maintaining good health and posture such as brushing teeth thoroughly, eating healthy foods like fruits and vegetables for energy and mood, avoiding junk food, protecting eyes from UV rays, sitting properly when watching TV or studying, and keeping eyes clean.
This document summarizes various demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system. It describes the classification of these diseases, including whether they involve a primary abnormality of myelin formation (dysmyelinating) or damage to already formed myelin (demyelinating). Specific diseases discussed include acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, multiple sclerosis, neuromyelitis optica, central pontine myelinolysis, progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy, HIV encephalopathy, and inflammatory demyelinating pseudotumor. For each disease, the clinical features, MRI appearance, differential diagnosis, and pathology are summarized.
MRI artifacts can occur due to hardware issues, software issues, patient motion, and other factors. Common artifacts include zipper artifacts from RF contamination entering the shielded room, herringbone artifacts from RF pulse discrepancies, moire fringes from lack of field homogeneity, slice overlap artifacts from multi-slice acquisitions, phase encoding motion artifacts from tissue movement, susceptibility artifacts near metallic objects, chemical shift artifacts at fat-water interfaces, truncation artifacts at organ boundaries, and aliasing artifacts when the field of view is too small. Understanding the causes and appearances of artifacts can help avoid confusing them with pathology.
This document provides an overview of various demyelinating diseases that can be seen on neuroimaging. It begins with an introduction to white matter diseases and divides them into demyelinating versus dysmyelinating processes.

2. DEFINITION
Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy:
Insufficient cerebral blood flow(ischemia)
and decreased blood oxygenation(hypoxia)
leads to loss of normal cerebral auto-
regulation. This results in diffuse brain
injury that known as HIE.
HIE Depends on:
1) Gestational age(Brain maturity) at time of insult.
2) Duration and Severity of insult.
3. ETIOLOGY
1. INTRAUTERINE ASPHYXIA
Inadequate placental perfusion
a) Maternal Hypotension
a) Preeclampsia
a) Abruptio placentae
b) Infection (chorio amnionitis)
• Impaired maternal oxygenation
a) Asthma
b) Pulmonary embolism
c) CO poisioning
Disrupted umbilical circulation
a) Tight nuchal cord
b) Umbilical cord-entanglement/prolapse
4. FETAL FACTORS*
a) Anaemia
b) Fetal thrombosis, FM hemorhage
c)circulatory failure( bradycardia)
2. POSTNATAL ASPHYXIA
a) Severe hyaline membrane disease
b) Meconium aspiration
5. CLINICAL DIAGNOSIS OF HIE
• 1- Low umbilical cord pH<7.1
• 2-Poor Apgar score (0-3) at 5min
• 3-necessity for resuscitation
• 4-convulsions, hypotonia, coma.
• 5-Multiorgan dysfunction
7. VULNERABLE AREA FOR HIE
• Areas with greatest demand of energy
• Areas with highest concentration of
glutamate or other excitatory amino acid
receptor
BORDER ZONE
Preterm neonate – Periventricular
Term neonate- para-saggital in location
9. PRE-TERM:
MILD-TO MODERATE HYPOXIA
Most common site of insult –border zone
(periventricular region)
1 periventricular infarction(40%)
2 periventricular haemorrage(15%)
10. IMAGING
• USG-to exclude dialation of ventricles or
haemorrhage, periventricular
leukomalacia.
• CT-to asses ventricular dilation and intra-ventricular
bleed. Less sensitive modality.
• MRI- common sequence are done T1 ,T2, DWI , ADC
SWI if hemorrhage is suspected . MRS is done when
DWI findings are normal,but clinical suspicion for
HII still remain High.
• T1-intra ventricular bleed seen as hyperintense signal.
• T2-gliosis –seen as increased signal intensity in peri-
ventricular white matter.
• DWI-shows restriction in peri-ventricular region with
corresponding hypointense signal in ADC map
11. FLAIR
Useful in demonstrating following feature.
• Thinningof periventricular white matter.
• Thinningof corpus callosum.
• Development of porencephaliccyst.
• Ventriculomegaly.
ROLE OF MRS--
. MR spectroscopy provides gross biochemical analysis of the
“compromised anaerobic” cerebral tissues, as it reveals changes in
the concentrations of lactate, choline, creatine, N-acetylaspartate
(NAA), and glutamine
USEFUL WHEN DWI IS NORMAL BUT HIGH
CLINICAL SUSPICION OF HIE
Elevated lactate and diminished NAA concentrations are common
findings in infants with HIE.

16. Doppler interrogation and the assessment of
resistive index (RI) provide additional information on
cerebral perfusion. Normally, the RI decreases with
increasing gestational age, and thus correlation with
gestational age is necessary for accurate
interpretation of RI results.
Decreased RI is noted to be an abnormal finding
and is postulated to be caused by impairment in
cerebral auto-regulation and subsequent decreased
cerebrovascular resistence and increase in end-
diastolic flow. However, Sustained asphyxia with
subsequent development of intracanial hemorrhage
or diffuse cerebral edema and loss of forward
diastolic flow result in increased RI and is indicative
of a poor outcome

20. PROFOUND HYPOXIC-ISCHEAMIC INJURY IN
PRETERM NEONATE
• SEVER HYPOXIC INJURY AFFECT PREDOMINANTLY DEEP GRAY
MATTER STRUCTURES AND BRAINSTEM I.E. thalami, dorsal brainstem,
anterior vermis.
• With relative low involvement of basal ganglia hippocampus,
periolandic cortex, and corticospinal tracts.
• why? Because early myelination of thalamus and globus pallidus at
25weeks of GA. Late myelination of caudate nucleus and putamen ,
perirolandic cortex at 35weeks of GA.
• May be associated with GMS OR PVL.
• MRI FINDING- earliest MRI finding is diffusion abnormality in thalami
which usually evident within the first 24hrs. Increased T2 SI is seen by
the 3rd day and T1 SI by 4th day.
22. Acute profound asphyxia -results in lesions in high-oxygen-
demand areas(deep gray matter), sometimes called the basal ganglia-
thalamus pattern
ventrolateral thalamus
posterior putamen, hippocampi, dorsal brainstem
corticospinal tract from perirolandic cortex to posterior limb of internal
capsule (including absent posterior limb sign)
Prolonged partial asphyxia- results in hemispheric cortical-
subcortical lesions in a watershed (border zone or watershed zonel)
distribution (parasaggital white matter and when severe extending to
overlying cortex).
Auto-regulatory mechanism maintain perfusion to highly metabolically
active area(deep gray matter and brain stem ).
PATTERN OF HIE IN TERM NEONATE
23. MRI FINDINGS IN MILD TO MODERATE HIE
DWI is earliest to change and show cortical and
Subcortical white matter restriction.
By 2nd day T2 WI show cortical swelling , loss of gray white
Matter differentiation and hyperintensity in cortex and
Subcortical white matter.
T1WI show abnormal cortical high SI beginning from the 3rd
Day of insult, reach max. during 2nd week, last for several for
Weeks this is referred to cortical highlightning.
T1WI and T2WI may show punctuate T1 high SI and
corresponding T2WI low SI, representing Astrogliosis in the
Parasagittal subcortical white matter. No blooming on SWI will
Rule out hemorrhage.
