Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is a leading cause of disability in adults, many of whom report a distressing combination of physical, emotional and cognitive symptoms, collectively known as post-concussion syndrome, that persist after the injury. Significant developments in magnetic resonance diffusion imaging, involving voxel-based quantitative analysis through the measurement of fractional anisotropy or mean diffusivity, have enhanced our knowledge on the different stages of mTBI pathophysiology. Other diffusion imaging-derived techniques, including diffusion kurtosis imaging with multi-shell diffusion and high-order tractography models, have recently demonstrated their usefulness in mTBI. Our review starts by briefly outlining the physical basis of diffusion tensor imaging including the pitfalls for use in brain trauma, before discussing findings from diagnostic trials testing its usefulness in assessing brain structural changes in patients with mTBI. Use of different post-processing techniques for the diffusion imaging data, identified the corpus callosum as the most frequently injured structure in mTBI, particularly at sub-acute and chronic stages, and a crucial location for evaluating functional outcome. However, structural changes appear too subtle for identification using traditional diffusion biomarkers, thus disallowing expansion of these techniques into clinical practice. In this regard, more advanced diffusion techniques are promising in the assessment of this complex disease.

Multiparametric quantitative blood oxygenation level dependent (mqBOLD) magnetic resonance Imaging (MRI) approach allows mapping tissular oxygen saturation (StO2) and cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO2). To identify hemodynamic alteration related to severe intracranial arterial stenosis (SIAS), functional MRI of cerebrovascular reserve (CVR BOLD fMRI) to hypercapnia has been proposed. Diffusion imaging suggests chronic low grade ischemia in patients with impaired CVR. The aim of the present study was to evaluate how oxygen parameters (StO2 and CMRO2), assessed with mqBOLD approach, correlate with CVR in patients (n = 12) with SIAS and without arterial occlusion. The perfusion (dynamic susceptibility contrast), oxygenation, and CVR were compared. The MRI protocol conducted at 3T lasted approximately 1 h. Regions of interest measures on maps were delineated on segmented gray matter (GM) of middle cerebral artery territories. We have shown that decreased CVR is spatially associated with decreased CMRO2 in GM of patients with SIAS. Further, the degree of ipsilateral CVR reduction was well‐correlated with the amplitude of the CMRO2 deficit. The altered CMRO2 suggests the presence of a moderate ischemia explained by both a decrease in perfusion and in CVR. CVR and mqBOLD method may be helpful in the selection of patients with SIAS to advocate for medical therapy or percutaneous transluminal angioplasty‐stenting. Hum Brain Mapp 36:695–706, 2015.

AbstractHearing loss is a common functional disorder after trauma, and radiologists should be aware of the ossicular, labyrinthine or brain lesions that may be responsible. After a trauma, use of a systematic approach to explore the main functional components of auditory pathways is essential. Conductive hearing loss is caused by the disruption of the conductive chain, which may be due to ossicular luxation or fracture. This pictorial review firstly describes the normal 2-D and 3-D anatomy of the ossicular chain, including the incudo-malleolar and incudo-stapedial joints. The role of 3-D CT in the post-traumatic evaluation of injury to the temporal bone is then evaluated. In the case of sensorineural hearing loss, CT can detect pneumolabyrinth and signs of perilymphatic fistulae but fails to detect subtle lesions within the inner ear, such as labyrinthine haemorrhage or localized brain axonal damage along central auditory pathways. The role that MRI with 3-D-FLAIR acquisition plays in the detection of inner ear haemorrhage and post-traumatic lesions of the brain parenchyma that may lead to auditory agnosia is also discussed.Key Points• The most common middle ear injuries are incudo-malleolar and incudo-stapedial joint luxation. • In patients with SNHL, CT can detect pneumolabyrinth or perilymphatic fistula • 3-D-FLAIR MRI appears the best sequence to highlight labyrinthine haemorrhage • Axonal damage and brain hematoma may lead to deafness

Surgical resection is currently the best treatment for salivary gland tumors. A reliable magnetic resonance imaging mapping, encompassing tumor grade, location, and extension may assist safe and effective tumor resection and provide better information for patients regarding potential risks and morbidity after surgical intervention. However, direct examination of the tumor grade and extension using conventional morphological MRI remains difficult, often requiring contrast media injection and complex algorithms on perfusion imaging to estimate the degree of malignancy. In addition, contrast-enhanced MRI technique may be problematic due to the recently demonstrated gadolinium accumulation in the dentate nucleus of the cerebellum. Significant developments in magnetic resonance diffusion imaging, involving voxel-based quantitative analysis through the measurement of the apparent diffusion coefficient, have enhanced our knowledge on the different histopathological salivary tumor grades. Other diffusion imaging-derived techniques, including high-order tractography models, have recently demonstrated their usefulness in assessing the facial nerve location in parotid tumor context. All of these imaging techniques do not require contrast media injection. Our review starts by outlining the physical basis of diffusion imaging, before discussing findings from diagnostic studies testing its usefulness in assessing salivary glands tumors with diffusion MRI.

PURPOSE The goal of this retrospective study was to investigate the differential diagnosis of endolymphatic hydrops in patients with Menieres disease (MD) symptoms by using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with intravenous injection of gadolinium chelate and delayed acquisition. MATERIAL AND METHOD Two hundred patients (133 women, 67 men; mean age=67.2±11 ([SD] years) with unilateral MD underwent MRI at 3-T, between 4.5 and 5.5hours after intravenous administration of gadoterate meglumine at a dose of 0.1mmol/kg. MR images were analyzed for the presence of saccular hydrops, perilymphatic fistulae, inner ear malformations, semicircular canal (SCC) abnormal enhancement and brain lesions. We also tested the potential relationship between past history of gentamicin intratympanic administration and perilymphatic fistula presence and SCC aspect. RESULTS Saccular hydrops were found in 96/200 patients with MD (48%). Three patients (1.5%) had perilymphatic fistulas associated with saccular hydrops, as confirmed by surgery. There was a correlation between the presence of perilymphatic fistula and past history of intratympanic gentamicin administration (P=0.02). We detected inner ear malformations in 5 patients (2.5%), SCC local enhancement in 15 patients (7.5%) always on the same side than the clinical symptoms of MD. There was a correlation between the presence of SCC abnormal enhancement and past intratympanic gentamicin administration (P=0.001). Five patients (2.5%) had brain lesions along central cochleovestibular pathways. CONCLUSION MRI may reveal brain lesions, SCC abnormalities and perilymphatic fistulae in patients with clinical MD.

Radiotherapy and chemotherapy may induce neurological toxicities with different appearances on CT and MRI scans. While optimized radiotherapy techniques have reduced some complications, new unwanted effects have occurred on account of therapeutic protocols involving the simultaneous use of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Advances in radio-surgery, innovative anti-angiogenic therapies, as well as prolonged patient survival have led to the emergence of new deleterious side effects. In this report, we describe the early, semi-delayed, and late encephalic complications, while specifying how to identify the morphological lesions depending on the therapeutic protocol.

Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) firstly mainly affects peripheral vision. Current behavioral studies support the idea that visual defects of patients with POAG extend into parts of the central visual field classified as normal by static automated perimetry analysis. This is particularly true for visual tasks involving processes of a higher level than mere detection. The purpose of this study was to assess visual abilities of POAG patients in central vision. Patients were assigned to two groups following a visual field examination (Humphrey 24–2 SITA-Standard test). Patients with both peripheral and central defects and patients with peripheral but no central defect, as well as age-matched controls, participated in the experiment. All participants had to perform two visual tasks where low-contrast stimuli were presented in the central 6° of the visual field. A categorization task of scene images and human face images assessed high-level visual recognition abilities. In contrast, a detection task using the same stimuli assessed low-level visual function. The difference in performance between detection and categorization revealed the cost of high-level visual processing. Compared to controls, patients with a central visual defect showed a deficit in both detection and categorization of all low-contrast images. This is consistent with the abnormal retinal sensitivity as assessed by perimetry. However, the deficit was greater for categorization than detection. Patients without a central defect showed similar performances to the controls concerning the detection and categorization of faces. However, while the detection of scene images was well-maintained, these patients showed a deficit in their categorization. This suggests that the simple loss of peripheral vision could be detrimental to scene recognition, even when the information is displayed in central vision. This study revealed subtle defects in the central visual field of POAG patients that cannot be predicted by static automated perimetry assessment using Humphrey 24–2 SITA-Standard test.

PURPOSE After a trauma, the conductive ossicular chain may be disrupted by ossicular luxation or fracture. Recent developments in 3D-CT allow a better understanding of ossicular injuries. In this retrospective study, we compared patients with post-traumatic conductive hearing loss (CHL) with those referred without CHL to evaluate the relationship between ossicular injuries and CHL. We also assessed the added value of 3D reconstructions on 2D-CT scan to detect ossicular lesions in patients surgically managed. METHODS The CT scans were performed using a 40-section spiral CT scanner in 49 patients with post-traumatic CHL (n=29) and without CHL (n=20). Three radiologists performed independent blind evaluations of 2D-CT and 3D reconstructions to detect ossicular chain injury. We used the t-test to explore differences regarding the number of subjects with ossicular injury in the two groups. We also estimated the diagnostic accuracy and the inter-rater agreement of the 3D-CT reconstructions associated to 2D-CT scan. RESULTS We identified ossicular abnormality in 14 patients out of 29 and in one patient out of 20 in the CHL and non-CHL groups respectively. There was a significant difference regarding the number of subjects with ossicular lesions between the two groups (P≤0.01). The diagnostic sensitivity of 3D-CT reconstructions associated with 2D-CT ranged from 66% to 100% and the inter-reader agreement ranged from 0.85 to 1, depending of the type of lesion. CONCLUSION The relationship between ossicular lesion and the presence of CHL tightly correlated. 3D-CT reconstructions of the temporal bone are useful to assess patients in a post-traumatic context.

Cerebral metastases are the commonest central nervous system tumors. The MR assessment should include T1-weighted images with and without enhancement and T2/FLAIR images. They usually appear as multiple lesions with nodular or annular enhancement and are surrounded by edema. They are hypervascularized and have no restriction of their diffusion coefficient in their necrotic area and contain lipids on 1H spectroscopy. Metastases can be distinguished from primary tumors by the lack of malignant cell infiltration around the tumor. Stereotactic radiotherapy may temporarily increase tumor volume, although this is not of adverse oncological value. Less commonly, spinal disease may be asymptomatic and should be examined by MR.

ObjectivesA case-controlled imaging study demonstrated that saccular hydrops was specific to Meniere’s disease (MD), but only present in a subset of patients. Here, we compared patients with definite MD, vertigo and sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) to elucidate the relationship between saccular hydrops and extent of SNHL.MethodsIn this prospective study, we performed 3D-FLAIR sequences between 4.5 and 5.5 h after contrast media injection in patients with MD (n=20), SNHL (n=20), vertigo (n=20) and 30 healthy subjects. Two radiologists independently graded saccular hydrops. ROC analysis was performed to determine the hearing loss threshold to differentiate patients with saccular hydrops.ResultsSaccular hydrops was found in 11 of 20 MD patients, 10 of 20 SNHL patients and in none of the vertigo patients and healthy subjects. In SNHL patients, 45 dB was the threshold above which there was a significant association with saccular hydrops, with sensitivity of 100 % and specificity of 90 %. In MD patients, 40 dB was the threshold above which there was a significant association with saccular hydrops, with sensitivity of 100 % and specificity of 44 %.ConclusionsOur results indicate saccular hydrops as a feature of worse than moderate SNHL rather than MD itself.Key Points• MRI helps clinicians to assess patients with isolated low-tone sensorineural hearing loss.• Saccular hydrops correlates with sensorineural hearing loss at levels above 40 dB.• Vertigo patients without sensorineural hearing loss do not have saccular hydrops.• Saccular hydrops is described in patients without clinical diagnosis of Meniere’s disease.
