Work-Life Experience of Academic Radiologists: Food for Thought.

Rationale And Objectives: Work-life experience of physicians is a driver of work engagement vs. burnout. We aimed to determine individual and institutional factors affecting work-life experience of the clinical faculty at a large tertiary care academic medical center.

Multimodal Presurgical Evaluation of Medically Refractory Focal Epilepsy in Adults: An Update for Radiologists.

Surgery is a potentially curative treatment option for patients with medically refractory focal epilepsy. Advanced neuroimaging modalities often improve surgical outcomes by contributing key information during the highly individualized surgical planning process and intraoperative localization. Hence, neuroradiologists play an integral role in the multidisciplinary management team.

A Practical Review of Functional MRI Anatomy of the Language and Motor Systems.

Functional MR imaging is being performed with increasing frequency in the typical neuroradiology practice; however, many readers of these studies have only a limited knowledge of the functional anatomy of the brain. This text will delineate the locations, anatomic boundaries, and functions of the cortical regions of the brain most commonly encountered in clinical practice-specifically, the regions involved in movement and language.

Evaluation of the acute effect of haemodialysis on retina and optic nerve with optical coherence tomography.

Purpose: The primary objective of haemodialysis (HD) was to correct the composition and volume of body fluids. The aim of this study was to evaluate the acute effect of HD on mean arterial pressure changes and on retina and optic nerve with optical coherence tomography (OCT).

Methods: Fifty-three eyes of 28 patients were enrolled in this study.

In vivo 7 Tesla imaging of the dentate granule cell layer in schizophrenia.

Purpose: The hippocampus is central to the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Histology shows abnormalities in the dentate granule cell layer (DGCL), but its small size (~100 μm thickness) has precluded in vivo human studies. We used ultra high field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to compare DGCL morphology of schizophrenic patients to matched controls.
