Cerebral angiomas: Influence of morphological aspects such as size and site on their clinical behavior with special reference to the mode of bleeding
1987
The following paper presents analysis of 182 cases of arteriovenous malformations treated surgically at the Neurosurgical Department of the Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, FRG. Although the behavior of AVMs remains unpredictable, morphological features of AVMs have an important bearing on their clinical presentation, especially the mode of bleeding.
The Two-Minutes-Flow-Index (TMFI)
1969
While performing clinical rCBF functional tests it is difficult to maintain the patient in a stationary condition over the entire clearance period. For this reason it has become a common practice to restrict the recording of the clearance curves to the first 2 min [1, 2, 3]. This gives rise to one question: 1. Is it possible to evaluate the information contained in these 2 min of the clearance curve so as to obtain a quantifiable measure for rCBF?
CT and MR Imaging of Brain Tumors
1989
Our clinical population numbered 8516 patients with primary and metastatic brain tumors who underwent evaluation by computed tomography at the neurosurgical and neuroradiologic departments of the Berlin, Mainz, and Munich centers from 1975 to 1986 and at the Neurosurgical Department of Augsburg Central Hospital from 1983 to 1986. Table 5 lists all the tumors having an incidence greater than 1% in the total population; 98% of the lesions were confirmed histologically (open surgery, stereotactic biopsy, autopsy). “Rare” intracranial tumors having an incidence no greater than 1% are listed in Table 6. The frequencies of the individual tumor types correlate well with the statistical data report…
