Kamalian, L.T. Morais, A.M. Franceschi, L. Souza and P.W. SchaeferAmerican Journal of Neuroradiology January 2015, 36 (1) 40-45; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3174/ajnr.A4091
Using CT or DWI, the authors categorized percentages of insular ribbon infarctions as less or more than 50% and correlated these with clinical outcomes. Only insular ribbon involvement greater than 50% and low NIHSS score at admission correlated with poor outcomes. They concluded that DWI–percentage insula ribbon infarct of >50% independently predicted poor clinical outcome and can help identify patients with stroke likely to have poor outcome despite small admission DWI lesion volumes.

The authors evaluated the results reported in 23 studies that included 516 patients in whom different drugs were used for rescue therapy in thromboembolic complications during endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms. The literature shows that rescue therapy with thrombolytic agents resulted in significantly more morbidity than rescue therapy with glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors. Tirofiban/eptifibatide resulted in significantly higher recanalization rates compared with abciximab.

Double inversion recovery was used to study 30 patients with suspected or established MS and images were blindly evaluated by 2 neuroradiologists. DIR detected 28% more lesions than T2-weighted images with higher contrast-to-noise ratios leading to increased rating in lesion visibility. The authors concluded that the DIR sequence allowed better detection of lesions in MS and related inflammatory diseases of the cervical spinal cord compared with conventional T2WI.
