American Journal of Neuroradiology The Journal of Diagnostic and Interventional Neuroradiology (Official Journal: ASNR, ASFNR, ASHNR, ASPNR, ASSR)
(226)

Published by the American Society of Neuroradiology (ASNR), the American Journal of Neuroradiology (AJNR) publishes original articles pertaining to the clinical imaging, therapy, and basic science of the central and peripheral nervous system. In a typical year, AJNR publishes more than 350 fully reviewed Original Research papers, Review Articles, and Technical Notes. Subject matter covers the spec

trum of diagnostic and functional imaging of the brain, head, neck, spine, and organs of special sense, including: aging and degenerative diseases; anatomy; the cervicothoracic junction; contrast media; experimental studies; functional imaging; iatrogenic disorders; imaging techniques and technology (including all advanced imaging modalities); inflammatory diseases; interventional techniques and related technology; the larynx and lymphatics; molecular imaging; the nasopharynx and skull base; neoplastic diseases; the nose and paranasal sinuses; oral and dental imaging; ophthalmologic and otorhinolaryngologic imaging; pediatric ENT radiology; pediatric neuroradiology and congenital malformations; the phakomatoses; radionuclide imaging; the salivary glands; seizure disorders; cancer, stroke, and cerebrovascular diseases; the temporal bone; and tissue characterization and trauma. AJNR is abstracted and/or indexed by PubMed/Medline, BIOSIS Previews, Current Contents (Clinical Medicine and Life Sciences), EMBASE, Google Scholar, HighWire Press, Q-Sensei, RefSeek, Science Citation Index, and SCI Expanded. Twelve issues per year, peer-reviewed, approximately 200 pages per issue.

FLAIR hyperintensity on MRI can help estimate time since stroke onset in children, similar to its use in adults. The median time to FLAIR signal appearance was about 5–6 hours after stroke onset. Absence of FLAIR hyperintensity suggests the stroke may still be within a therapeutic window. These findings support using MRI to guide recanalization treatment decisions in pediatric stroke.

In this study, superagers showed lower WMH burden than typical older adults, particularly in frontal regions and specifically the juxtacortical and mid-white matter. No differences were found in microstructural integrity of normal-appearing white matter (FA, MD). These findings suggest that reduced, region-specific WMH—rather than global burden or microstructure—may underlie preserved cognition. Local WMH patterns may serve as biomarkers of successful cognitive aging.

Spinal CVFs are a cause of SIH and typically require invasive myelography for localization. This study found that CVFs most often occur at or near the largest meningeal diverticulum on spine MRI (77%), usually within 1 spinal level. Common patterns include diverticula located caudal to the CVF or on the contralateral side at the same level.
These MRI features can help predict CVF location and guide targeted myelography.

‘Predicting Vasospasm and Delayed Cerebral Ischemia in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: The Role of Vessel Wall MRI’
Vessel wall enhancement on MRI is significantly associated with aneurysm rupture and predicts angiographic vasospasm after aSAH. However, VWE does not predict delayed cerebral ischemia, which is influenced by other factors like modified Fisher grade and hypertension. These findings suggest VWE may serve as a useful biomarker for vasospasm risk, but not for DCI. Integrating VWE with clinical and imaging factors may improve overall risk assessment.
