Based on high-resolution vascular wall imaging (HR-VWI) data, we quantitatively analyzed the differences in morphological abnormalities of the basilar artery wall between the three groups, including ...

Vertebrobasilar junction fenestration is considered to be a subtype of fenestration of the proximal basilar artery, which has been described only in autopsy cases. The fenestration associated with a ...

Objective To improve early diagnosis of patients who have basilar artery occlusion (BAO) and to provide evidence for treatment decisions based on clinical characteristics, treatment strategies, and ...

Background and Purpose—We tested the hypothesis that activation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase is involved in dilator responses of the basilar artery to acetylcholine in vivo. This study was ...

Sofias 82, 11528 Athens, Greece; spengoshol.gr Occlusion of the rostral portion of the basilar artery can result in ischaemia of the midbrain and thalami, as well as of the temporal and occipital ...

In patients with basilar artery occlusion (BAO) treated with IVT, the recanalization rate has also been shown to depend on thrombus length, although no cut-off value beyond which recanalization would ...

Transradial procedure failures can sometimes be due to variation in radial artery anatomy. However, data describing such variations are limited. Objective: To evaluate the incidence and impact of ...

Everything revolves around a centre. The earth pirouettes around a molten core. The solar system hums to the rhythm of the ...
