Journal ArticleDOI
Mapping local hippocampal changes in Alzheimer's disease and normal ageing with MRI at 3 Tesla
Giovanni B. Frisoni,Rossana Ganzola,Elisa Canu,Udo Rüb,Francesca B. Pizzini,Franco Alessandrini,Giada Zoccatelli,A. Beltramello,Carlo Caltagirone,Paul M. Thompson +9 more
TL;DR: In vivo local hippocampal changes in ageing and Alzheimer's disease based on high resolution MRI at 3 Tesla found specific areas in the anterior and dorsal CA1 subfield involved in Alzheimer’s disease were not in normal ageing.
Journal ArticleDOI
A neuroradiologist’s guide to arterial spin labeling MRI in clinical practice
Madeline Grade,J. A Hernandez Tamames,J. A Hernandez Tamames,Francesca B. Pizzini,Eric Achten,Xavier Golay,Marion Smits +6 more
TL;DR: This review provides a practical guide and overview of the clinical applications of ASL of the brain, as well its potential pitfalls, and studies on ASL in brain tumour imaging indicate a high correlation between areas of increased CBF as measured with ASL and increased cerebral blood volume as measured by dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced perfusion imaging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inflammatory intrathecal profiles and cortical damage in multiple sclerosis
Roberta Magliozzi,Roberta Magliozzi,Owain W. Howell,Richard Nicholas,Carolina Cruciani,Carolina Cruciani,Marco Castellaro,Chiara Romualdi,Stefania Rossi,Marco Pitteri,Maria Donata Benedetti,Alberto Gajofatto,Francesca B. Pizzini,Stefania Montemezzi,Sarah Rasia,Ruggero Capra,Alessandra Bertoldo,Francesco Facchiano,Salvatore Monaco,Richard Reynolds,Massimiliano Calabrese +20 more
TL;DR: Gray matter damage and meningeal inflammation have been associated with early disease onset and a more aggressive disease course in multiple sclerosis, but can these changes be identified in the patient early in the disease course?
Journal ArticleDOI
Adipose Tissue Infiltration in Skeletal Muscle of Healthy Elderly Men: Relationships With Body Composition, Insulin Resistance, and Inflammation at the Systemic and Tissue Level
Elena Zoico,Andrea Rossi,Vincenzo Di Francesco,Anna Sepe,Debora Olioso,Francesca B. Pizzini,Francesco Fantin,Ottavio Bosello,Luciano Cominacini,Tamara B. Harris,Mauro Zamboni +10 more
TL;DR: IMAT was primarily related to age and total body adiposity; subclinical inflammation in fat significantly contributes to IMAT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parenchymal abnormalities associated with developmental venous anomalies
Diego San Millán Ruíz,Jacqueline Delavelle,Hasan Yilmaz,Philippe Gailloud,E. Piovan,Alberto Bertramello,Francesca B. Pizzini,Daniel A. Rüfenacht +7 more
TL;DR: Brain parenchymal abnormalities were associated with DVAs in close to two thirds of the cases evaluated, and are thought to occur secondarily, likely during post-natal life, as a result of chronic venous hypertension.
