Conversely, all patients with combined bone marrow and CNS relapse presented with symptoms and signs that warranted CSF examination. Conclusion: Routine CSF examinations are important in detecting CNS relapse in children with ALL during maintenance therapy. Furthermore, routine CSF sampling may detect ...
A small group of patients has been described with an associated granulomatous angiitis.Case report: A 57-year-old woman was admitted with onset of focal sensory seizures affecting the left side (face and upper limb). Neurological examination revealed left hemihypoesthesia. There was no cognitive ...
Introduction: Patients referred for cognitive evaluation may even after an extensive diagnostic workup including CerebroSpinal Fluid (CSF) examination, still remain diagnostically unresolved. However distinction between cognitive impairment due to neurodegenerative versus non-degenerative disorders is of great ...

We tried to investigate if magnetic resonance (MR) fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) imaging can be used as a routine brain screening examination instead of spin-echo T2-weighted imaging. Three hundred and ninety-four patients with clinically suspected brain diseases were randomly selected ...
