A brain aneurysm (also called a cerebral aneurysm or an intracranial aneurysm) is a ballooning arising from a weakened area in the wall of a blood vessel in the brain. If the brain aneurysm expands ...

Coronary artery aneurysms are commonly of atherosclerotic origin and are frequently asymptomatic. However, they may have varied presentations including angina, myocardial infarction, and sudden death.

An aneurysm is a weakened area in a blood vessel that’s at risk of bursting. A subarachnoid hemorrhage means that there is bleeding in the space that surrounds the brain. Most often, it occurs when an ...

Echocardiography, PET, axillary artery ultrasound and MRI may also be appropriate in individual cases suspected of large-vessel disease. Bone mineral density measurement may be required. PMR ...

Carotid ultrasound measurements were tested for treatment effects and compared with measurements of atherosclerosis in coronary and cervical angiograms. Drug subjects showed significant progressive ...

Pulmonary artery aneurysm (PAA) is an infrequent abnormality of the pulmonary vasculature with an unclear natural history and pathogenesis. 1 It represents around 1% of all aneurysms in the thoracic ...

Results: The semiquantitative score, grade score and lower limb score from vascular ultrasound were positively correlated with the Gensini score of coronary artery lesions. The semi-quantitative score ...

Carotid artery stenosis (CAS) is a narrowing of the lumen (the inside space) of the carotid artery (usually due to cholesterol deposits called plaque). CAS is responsible for 8% of all strokes due to ...

Ultrasound Image of Carotid Artery is taken by placing a probe against our neck region and sound waves get reflected and then the computer constructs an image based on the sound waves from the ...

Summary form only given. This paper introduces a novel segmentation scheme for carotid artery ultrasound images. The proposed scheme is based on watershed segmentation algorithm. It consists of four ...

Introduction Aneurysms of the posterior communicating artery (PCom) can present with oculomotor nerve palsy (ONP) in up to 25% of cases. 1–3 ONP often appears at the moment of aneurysm rupture but can ...

Another case is described in which bilateral popliteal aneurysms were located in the distal popliteal artery—that is, immediately below the arcuate popliteal ligament. These findings support the ...
