Background And Objective: This study considers dynamic modeling of the cerebral arterial circulation and reconstructing an atlas for the electrical conductivity of the brain. Electrical conductivity is a governing parameter in several electrophysiological modalities applied in neuroscience, such as electroencephalography (EEG), transcranial electrical stimulation (tES), and electrical impedance tomography (EIT). While high-resolution 7-Tesla (T) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) data allow for reconstructing the cerebral arteries with a cross-sectional diameter larger than the voxel size, electrical conductivity cannot be directly inferred from MRI data.

In recent years, ultra-high-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) applications have been rapidly increasing in both clinical research and practice. Indeed, 7-Tesla (7T) MRI allows improved depiction of smaller structures with high signal-to-noise ratio, and, therefore, may improve lesion visualization, diagnostic capabilities, and thus potentially affect treatment decision-making. Incremental evidence emerging from research over the past two decades has provided a promising prospect of 7T magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) in the evaluation of intracranial vasculature.

Background: While type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a major risk for ischemic stroke, the associated vessel wall characteristics remain essentially unknown. This study aimed to clarify intracranial vascular changes on three-dimensional vessel wall imaging (3D-VWI) using fast spin echo by employing 7Tesla (7T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in T2D patients without advanced atherosclerosis as compared to healthy controls.
Methods: In 48 T2D patients and 35 healthy controls, the prevalence of cerebral small vessel diseases and intracranial plaques were evaluated by 3D-VWI with 7T MRI.

Brain damage caused by small vessel disease (SVD) differs between males and females. We aimed to examine the pure sex-specific neuroanatomical mechanisms of SVD adjusted for voxel-based expected effects of age and sex on healthy brain volume. Thirty-one female and 32 male genetic SVD (cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy, CADASIL) patients and 55 sex- and age-matched healthy controls (HCs) underwent 7-Tesla MRI examinations.
