OBJECTIVE: We analyzed the outcome of patients with symptomatic vertebral hemangiomas
treated at University of California, San Francisco, over a 20 year period. Treatment included …

Review of results of experimental and clinical studies indicates that the penumbra of
physiologically impaired but potentially salvageable tissue surrounding the central core of focal …

Cervical spondylosis is caused by degenerative disc disease and usually produces intermittent
neck pain in middle-aged and elderly patients. This pain usually responds to activity …

To develop a simple, relatively noninvasive small-animal model of reversible regional
cerebral ischemia, we tested various methods of inducing infarction in the territory of the right …

Diffusion‐weighted MR images were compared with T2‐weighted MR images and correlated
with 1 H spin‐echo and 31 P MR Spectroscopy for 6‐8 h following a unilateral middle …

The sensitivity of diffusion‐weighted MRI was compared to that of T2‐weighted MRI
following temporary middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCA‐0) for 33 min followed by 4 h of …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Alteration of CSF flow has been proposed to be an
important mechanism leading to the development of syringomyelia. We hypothesize that a “…

Background and Purpose— Evidence suggests that activated microglia are detrimental to the
survival of new hippocampal neurons, whereas blocking inflammation has been shown to …

Increased expression of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) in the brain has been extensively
documented in association with a variety of insults, including ischemia, and is suggested to …

OBJECTIVE: Intraoperative monitoring of transcranial motor evoked potentials (TcMEPs)
has been investigated recently as a means of preventing motor deficits associated with …
