Radiation-Induced Hemorrhagic Vasculopathy and Seventh and Eighth Nerve Complex Neuropathy.

Radiation-induced (RI) changes such as radiation-induced cavernous malformations (RICMs) and radiation-induced cranial neuropathy (RICN) manifest as late delayed complications and can be seen on post-treatment imaging. Cavernous malformations (CMs) are vascular malformations that are made up of dilated, thin-walled capillary spaces without intervening brain parenchyma. Cranial nerve damage due to radiation exposure is a rare consequence of radiation therapy (RT).

Susceptibility Weighted Imaging: An Effective Auxiliary Sequence That Enhances Insight Into the Imaging of Stroke.

Aim: To evaluate the utility of susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) sequence in stroke imaging and assess supplemental information provided by SWI in an acute stroke scenario.

Materials And Methods: In this study, the appearance of cerebrovascular stroke on the SWI images were analyzed in 50 patients who presented with acute-onset neurological symptoms.

Results: Brain MRI with SWI was performed on 50 patients presenting with acute neurological symptoms.

Role of Neuroimaging in COVID 19 Infection-A Retrospective Study.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), a member of the family of coronaviruses, induces COVID-19 disease which is predominantly a respiratory illness. Several authors have reported neurological manifestations such as acute venous and arterial strokes and rarely acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, hemorrhagic posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome, and acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy by studying magnetic resonance imaging of brain parenchymal signal abnormalities in patients with COVID-19. Owing to sparsity of literature on extrapulmonary manifestation of COVID, it is imperative to study the mechanism of neuronal invasion and manifestations of COVID-19.

Knowledge of hand hygiene in undergraduate medical, dental, and nursing students: A cross-sectional survey.

Background: Hand hygiene is of paramount importance for the prevention of healthcare associated infections and the spread of antimicrobial resistance. There is a need to explore the concept of hand hygiene among the cross-disciplinary undergraduate healthcare students.

Aim: To evaluate and compare the knowledge of hand hygiene among medical, dental, and nursing undergraduate students.
