Symptomatic stenosis of the vertebrobasilar arteries : results of extra-and intracranial stent-PTA
TL;DR: The safety of stent‐assisted percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and its efficacy for the prevention of recurrent stroke in patients with symptomatic artery stenosis in the extra‐ and intracranial posterior circulation were determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This animal model offers a widespread and long‐lasting cortical demyelination of both hemispheres and the opportunity to inject prospective therapeutic agents directly into the lesions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Christoph Birkl,Martin Soellradl,Anna M. Toeglhofer,Stefanie Krassnig,Marlene Leoni,Lukas Pirpamer,Thomas Vorauer,Heinz Krenn,Johannes Haybaeck,Johannes Haybaeck,Franz Fazekas,Stefan Ropele,Christian Langkammer +12 more
TL;DR: Investigations confirmed the influence of formalin concentration on relaxation times and unexpectedly revealed an influence of vendor specific formalin composition, which has not been investigated so far.
Journal ArticleDOI
Symmetry of the arcuate fasciculus and its impact on language performance of patients with brain tumors in the language-dominant hemisphere.
Margit Jehna,James T. Becker,Zaar K,von Campe G,Mahdy Ali K,Gernot Reishofer,F. Payer,Michael Synowitz,Franz Fazekas,Christian Enzinger,Hannes Deutschmann +10 more
TL;DR: The authors' findings suggest that the right homologs of structural language-associated pathways could be supportive for language function and facilitate compensation mechanisms after brain damage in functionally eloquent areas.
