The Diffusion Saga

Diffusion imag­ing covers a broad spectrum of techniques, from the mapping of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values to diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) or Kurtosis imaging. All these applications are based on a single physicochemical property: water motion at the cellular level. In this second edition of Olea Imagein, Olea Medical® reveals all the secrets of this technique and its potential future applications.

The Bayesian Saga

The Bayesian method is a probabilistic method based on Bayes’s theorem, published in the 18th century. Bayesian framework can be applied in any context where parameters estimation is required and noise level is a limitation. This technique represents an indisputable breakthrough and a game changer in perfusion imaging as well as diffusion and so much more. In this first edition of Olea Imagein, Olea Medical® reveals all the secrets of this unparalleled algorithm and its positive impact on both MRI and CT image post-processing.

Brain Tumor: Low Grade & High Grade Gliomas

Gliomas are the most common primary cerebral neoplasms. The grading of gliomas is of utmost clinical importance as it determines the correct therapy. More aggressive treatment planning is required for the management of high-grade tumors. The purpose of this case report is to illustrate the possible predictors which might discriminate between low-and-high grade gliomas using dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) perfusion in the follow-up of treated low grade gliomas.

Brain Tumor: Pilocytic Astrocytoma

This is an interesting example of how leakage correction works. The final diagnosis, pilocytic astrocytoma, is fairly straight forward. These tumors are usually described as having low cerebral blood volume, a misconception caused by the rupture of the blood brain barrier and the leakage of contrast in the interstitial medium. When corrected for agent contrast leakage the real CBV value is much higher than the uncorrected one.

Amide Proton Transfer weighted imaging reveals a rolandic tumor in a pediatric patient

The young patient presented a first hyperthermic convulsive seizure. One month later, he presented another tonic-clonic episode with left hemicorporeal seizure lasting less than 5 minutes. Another month later, he had a tonic-clonic seizure again, without fever but complicated by status epilepticus. Afterwards, a CT scan showed a right parietal lesion, and he was transferred to the Necker- Enfants Malades hospital for a brain and spinal-cord MRI. The spinal-cord MRI did not reveal any metastases.
