Epilepsy, a neurological disorder characterised by recurrent seizures, poses significant challenges in diagnosis, treatment, and management. Understanding the underlying causes and identifying precise anatomical locations of epileptogenic foci are critical for effective management strategies, particularly in drug-resistant patients. Neuroimaging techniques, particularly magnetic resonance (MR), play a pivotal role in the evaluation of epilepsy patients, offering insights into structural abnormalities, epileptogenic lesions, and functional alterations within the brain.

Rationale: Knowledge of the venous systems of the neck is important in microvascular anastomosis as well as to avoid unintended bleeding during neck dissection.
Patient Concerns: We present three rare variations of the jugular system of the neck which could have complicated neck dissection.
Diagnosis: The first case is of a posterior tributary from an internal jugular vein (IJV).

Background: Vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia, a rare vascular anomaly, rarely presents with hydrocephalus. The traditional treatment for hydrocephalus is a ventriculoperitoneal shunt. Conventional endoscopic third ventriculostomy can avoid shunt-related complications but is considered risky due to the presence of the dolichoectatic vessel.

Rationale And Objective: To assess the impact of radial percentage k-space filling and signal averaging on lung MRI image quality in 3D radial ultrashort echo-time (UTE) acquisition.
Materials And Methods: In this IRB approved prospective study, 25 patients (10-30 years) referred for MRI examination for indications other than related to lungs were enrolled from January 2021 to November 2021. All the patients underwent lung MRI, using three different UTE sequence parameters with radial (R) percentage of 100 or 200 and number of signal averages (NSA) of one or two.
