Naturally occurring neurologic disease in non-human primates may be attributable to a wide-range of causes, including infectious agents, congenital or acquired malformations, degenerative diseases, and, rarely, neoplasia. We report a case of ataxia and paresis in a juvenile rhesus macaque with ependymal-lined cerebral cysts.

Frontal Paraventricular Cysts: Refined Definitions and Outcomes.
AJNR Am J Neuroradiol
January 2025
From the Division of Neuroradiology, Department of Radiology (M.T.W., A.M., C.A.P.F.A., O.S, E.S.S.), and Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology (N.K.), Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA, USA; Perelman School of Medicine (M.T.W., N.K., E.S.S.), Philadelphia, PA, USA; Division of Neuroradiology, Department of Radiology (C.A.P.F.A), Boston Children's Hospital, Boston, MA, USA; and Harvard Medical School (C.A.P.F.A), Boston, MA, USA.
Background And Purpose: Frontal paraventricular cystic changes have a varied etiology that includes connatal cysts, subependymal pseudocysts, necrosis, and enlarged perivascular spaces. These may be difficult to distinguish by neuroimaging and have a variety of associated prognoses. We aim to refine the neuroimaging definition of frontal horn cysts and correlate it with adverse clinical conditions.

Hydranencephaly (HE) is a severe and isolated malformation affecting the cerebral mantle. In this condition, the cerebral hemispheres are entirely or almost entirely absent, replaced by a membranous sac filled with cerebrospinal fluid, while the midbrain is usually preserved. Although HE is a relatively rare brain disorder, the differential diagnosis must include conditions such as severe hydrocephalus, porencephalic cysts, and alobar holoprosencephaly.

This paper investigates the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to enhance the differentiation of cystic lesions in the sellar region, such as pituitary adenomas, Rathke cleft cysts (RCCs) and craniopharyngiomas (CP), through the use of advanced neuroimaging techniques, particularly magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The goal is to explore how AI-driven models, including convolutional neural networks (CNNs), deep learning, and ensemble methods, can overcome the limitations of traditional diagnostic approaches, providing more accurate and early differentiation of these lesions. The review incorporates findings from critical studies, such as using the Open Access Series of Imaging Studies (OASIS) dataset (Kaggle, San Francisco, USA) for MRI-based brain research, highlighting the significance of statistical rigor and automated segmentation in developing reliable AI models.

Postoperative fever following neuroendoscopic procedures has been well-documented, yet specific differentiation based on the nature and site of the procedure remains lacking. Given the anatomical involvement of the hypothalamus in temperature regulation, we propose that endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) may have a distinct impact on postoperative fever. This study aims to investigate this phenomenon.

Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, University Medical Center Freiburg, Faculty of Medicine, University of Freiburg, Freiburg, Germany.
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare image quality features and lesion characteristics between a faster deep learning (DL) reconstructed T2-weighted (T2-w) fast spin-echo (FSE) Dixon sequence with super-resolution (T2) and a conventional T2-w FSE Dixon sequence (T2) for breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Materials And Methods: This prospective study was conducted between November 2022 and April 2023 using a 3T scanner. Both T2 and T2 sequences were acquired for each patient.
