- Stent-Assisted Coiling in the Treatment of Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms: A Randomized Clinical Trial
The STAT trial did not show stent-assisted coiling to be superior to coiling alone for wide-neck, large, or recurrent unruptured aneurysms.

- MR Imaging Signs of Gadolinium Retention Are Not Associated with Long-Term Motor and Cognitive Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis
Gadolinium retention in the brains of patients with MS is not associated with long-term motor or cognitive outcomes.
- Incidental Findings from 16,400 Brain MRI Examinations of Research Volunteers
Four percent of individuals who undergo research brain MR imaging have an incidental, potentially clinically significant finding. Routine neuroradiologist review of all scans yields a much higher rate of significant lesion detection than selective referral from nonradiologists who perform the examinations.
- Phenotyping Superagers Using Resting-State fMRI
Functional connectivity in the default mode, salience, and language networks can provide potential imaging biomarkers for predicting superagers.
- Outcomes with Endovascular Treatment of Patients with M2 Segment MCA Occlusion in the Late Time Window
In the late time window, patients with M2 occlusions treated with endovascular thrombectomy achieved better clinical outcomes, similar reperfusion, and lower symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage rates compared with patients with M1 occlusion. These results support the safety and benefit of endovascular thrombectomy in patients with M2 occlusions in the late window.
- Temporal Characteristics of CSF-Venous Fistulas on Digital Subtraction Myelography
This is the first study to report the temporal characteristics of CSF-venous fistulas using digital subtraction myelography. The authors found that, on average, the CSF-venous fistula appeared 9.1 seconds (range, 0-30 seconds) after intrathecal contrast reached the spinal level.
