Cortical Abnormalities in Patients with Migraine: A Surface-based Analysis
Roberta Messina,Maria A. Rocca,Bruno Colombo,Paola Valsasina,Mark A. Horsfield,M. Copetti,Andrea Falini,Giancarlo Comi,Massimo Filippi +8 more
TL;DR: Cortical abnormalities occur in migraineurs and may represent the results of a balance between an intrinsic predisposition, as suggested by cortical surface area abnormalities, and disease-related processes, as indicated by cortical thickness abnormalities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional network connectivity abnormalities in multiple sclerosis: Correlations with disability and cognitive impairment.
Maria A. Rocca,Paola Valsasina,Victoria M. Leavitt,Mariaemma Rodegher,Marta Radaelli,Gianna C Riccitelli,Vittorio Martinelli,Filippo Martinelli-Boneschi,Andrea Falini,Giancarlo Comi,Massimo Filippi +10 more
TL;DR: Investigating resting state (RS) functional connectivity abnormalities within the principal brain networks in a large cohort of multiple sclerosis patients found a complex pattern of decreased and increased RS FC, which contributes to a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of the topography of brain damage on depression and fatigue in patients with multiple sclerosis.
Claudio Gobbi,Maria A. Rocca,Gianna C Riccitelli,Elisabetta Pagani,Roberta Messina,Paolo Preziosa,Bruno Colombo,Mariaemma Rodegher,Andrea Falini,Giancarlo Comi,Massimo Filippi +10 more
TL;DR: Depression in MS is linked to atrophy of cortical regions located in the bilateral frontal lobes, and a distributed pattern of GM atrophy contributes to the concomitant presence of depression and fatigue in patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
MRI assessment of iron deposition in multiple sclerosis
Stefan Ropele,Wolter L. de Graaf,Michael Khalil,Mike P. Wattjes,Christian Langkammer,Maria A. Rocca,Alex Rovira,Jacqueline Palace,Frederik Barkhof,Massimo Filippi,Franz Fazekas +10 more
TL;DR: Currently available magnetic resonance imaging techniques for the assessment of brain iron are presented, including relaxation time mapping, phase imaging, susceptibility‐weighted Imaging, susceptibility mapping, magnetic field correlation imaging, and direct saturation imaging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective decreased grey matter volume of the pain-matrix network in cluster headache:
TL;DR: CH patients experience tissue abnormalities of grey matter regions that are part of the antinociceptive system, which is shared with other chronic pain conditions.
