August 13, 2009 — A new study shows that asymptomatic lacunar infarcts are a common incidental finding during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in community-dwelling people 60 to 64 years old. In this ...
Lacunar Infarction: (Left) T2-weighted axial MRI; (Middle) Flair axial MRI; (Right) Diffusion-weighted axial MRI. Note the single white matter lesion in the posterior limb of the right internal ...
Headache is infrequent in acute lacunar infarction, but it might nevertheless have important clinical implications. Arboix et al. investigated whether the site of infarct affects the incidence of ...
The presence of white matter hyperintensity (WMH) and lacunar infarct are recognized as risk factors of dementia, stroke and mortality. It is undetermined whether visceral adipose tissue (VAT) area is ...
The MRI confirms the clinical diagnosis of subacute (10 days in this case) right thalamic lacunar infarct and illustrates the following signal characteristics frequently seen with subacute infarction: ...
A new study has revealed a relationship between chronic periodontitis and lacunar infarct, two common diseases in the elderly. Chronic periodontitis is an inflammatory disease of the gums, whereas ...
Adults with gum disease may be more likely to have signs of damage to the brain's white matter, called white matter hyperintensities, than people without gum disease, according to a study published in ...
Older adults with gum disease are more likely to display signs of white matter damage in the brain, which is correlated with memory decline, balance issues, and higher stroke risk. That is according ...
People with gum disease may have higher levels of brain white matter damage, a new study finds. Researchers observed that participants with gum disease had significantly more white matter ...
Dear Dr. Roach: I am a 68-year-old woman in good health. In July 2015, I experienced some short-term confusion and muddled thinking after several days of a high fever (102 degrees). I went to a ...
Lacunar Infarction: (Left) Diffusion-weighted MRI; (Right) Flair axial MRI. Note the numerous white matter lesions in the Flair image, consistent with small vessel disease. The new stroke is not well ...
