MRI data show smoking, alcohol age the brain
By Wayne Forrest
It is no secret that excessive smoking and alcohol consumption harm one's health. Now, MR images and a machine-learning metric show that these bad habits also can age the brain prematurely, according to a study published online on January 30 in Scientific Reports.

No signs of residual gadolinium after MR arthrography
By Wayne Forrest
No signs of residual gadolinium uptake in the brain were found following intra-articular administration of a gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA) for MR arthrography in a new study, published online January 25 in Skeletal Radiology. The findings indicate that residual gadolinium may not occur with intra-articular use.

Deep learning could help MS patients avoid GBCA MRI
By Wayne Forrest
With the aid of a deep-learning model, a team of researchers has detected with greater than 70% accuracy active lesions in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), potentially helping them avoid repeat MRI scans and multiple doses of gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs), according to a study published in the February issue of Radiology.

MRI shows air pollution effect on kids' brain development
By Wayne Forrest
Air pollution is not only bad for the lungs, it could be bad for the brain as well -- especially in children. Brain MR images showed reduced gray-matter volume in kids who were exposed to high levels of traffic-related air pollution since birth, according to a January 24 study in PLOS One.

CT plus CT perfusion predicts stroke surgery outcomes
By AuntMinnie.com staff writers
The combination of standard noncontrast CT and CT perfusion can identify which stroke patients are likely to benefit from surgical treatment better than either of the modalities alone, according to a study recently published online in Annals of Neurology.
