2 DISEASES OF CNS BRAIN Developmental anomalies Cerebrovascular disorders Tumours Inflammatory diseases Trauma

3 DISEASES OF CNS BRAIN IMAGING METHODS Plain film radiography Ultrasonography (US) Computer tomography (CT) Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) (Cisternography, ventriculography)

4 DISEASES OF CNS DEVELOPMENTAL ANOMALIES CNS 9.3%

5 DEVELOPMENTAL ANOMALIES:(due to some NOXA in the fetal life) Stage 1: Weeks 3-4 Dorsal Induction: Formation and Closure of the Neural Tube Three phases: Neurulation, canalization, retrogressive differentiation Failure: Anencephaly, Cephalocele, Chiari, Spinal dysraphism Stage 2: Weeks 5-10 Ventral Induction: Formation of the Brain Segments and Face Three vesicles (prosencephalon, mesencephalon, and rhombencephalon) form the cerebrum, mid-brain, cerebellum, and lower brain stem. Division into two hemispheres. Failure: Holoprosencephalies, Corpus callosum agenesis, Dandy Walker,Facial anomalies Stage 3: Months 2-5. Migration and Histogenesis Neuronal migration from germinal matrix to the cortex. Cortical organization. Disorders: Heterotopias, agyria-pachygyria, polymicrogyria, vascular malformations, teratomas, phakomatosis. Stage 4: 5-15 months; matures by 3 years. Myelination Inferior to superior; posterior to anterior. Failure: developmental delay, dysmyelinating disease

6 CONGENITAL ANOMALIES US, MRI, CT, conventional X-ray, DSA Chiari malformation + CC agenesis + meningocele + blockvertebra

7 DISEASES OF CNS Cerebrovascular disorders - STROKE CT, CTA, MRA, DSA, US MRI Intracerebral lesions: ischaemic haemorrhagic Underlying vascular processes Developmental aneurysms vascular malformations Acquired stenoocclusive lesions thromboembolic processes

23 Abnormal tissue growth Structure: homogeneity, calcification, cyst, necrosis haemorrhage Border: sharp blurred irregular e.g.

24 Changed vascularisation Gr. 3 astrocytoma Tumor vascularisation Increased CBV, CBF Dignity CBV correlation + Increased permeability: enhancement Angio: hypervascularisation Meningioma

25 Changed metabolism MR spectroscopy Normal brain Tumor Cho=cellularity, NAA=neuron integrity, Lac=anaerob metabolism

26 Changed metabolism MR spectroscopy: Tumor or not tumor Tumor diff. dg Grading Extension (focal, infiltration, enhancing and non-enhancing, over T2 parts) Heterogeneity Biopsy (high grade parts) Effect of therapy Consequencies of therapy (radiation necrosis or recidive tumor)

27 Contrast enhancement Non enhancing Enhancing (homogeneous, heterogeneous) Partly enhancing tumors Special signs: tail sign, closed-opened ring Malignity cm enhancement correlation in a histological group +

28 Contrast enhancement Non enhancing Enhancing (homogeneous, inhomogeneous) Partly enhancing Special signs: tail sign, closed or opened ring Malignity c.m. enhancement correlation in a histological group +

29 Perifocal edema Vasogenic type fingerlike involving only the white matter

30 Space-occupying effect Edema+tumor compression/dislocation herniations subfalcial, transtentorial, transforaminal

31 Hydrocephalus CSF-producing tumor: plexus papilloma Middle-line tumor plexus papilloma medulloblastoma ependymoma Meningial tumors: metastatic, haematological tu.

32 Bone changes Lytic Sclerotic Atrophic Destructive lesions

33 Multiplicity Metastases Glioblastoma Non-tumour diseases

34 INTRACRANIAL TUMOURS Neuroimaging = histological diagnosis
