Millions of people worldwide suffer from hydrocephalus, or a buildup of excess cerebrospinal fluid in the brain, and which ...

Ultrasound Localization Microscopy (ULM) enables imaging microvessels in the brain with a resolution of a few tens of micrometers in-vivo. The planar architecture of arterioles and venules was ...

Adoption of middle meningeal artery embolization in the management of chronic subdural hematomas has led to a renewed interest in dural vascular anatomy. The readily identifiable major dural arteries ...

Better Cardiovascular Health May Stave Off Degenerative Brain Disease CV risk factors don’t just impact heart health, but also affect other organs, including the brain, say experts.

Abstract The blood-brain barrier (BBB) protects the brain from circulating metabolites and plays central roles in neurological diseases. Endothelial cells (ECs) of the BBB are enwrapped by mural cells ...

Long before we're born, our heart's tissues twitch and convulse in a rhythm that only ceases in our final hour. It's a ...

Using an AI tool, researchers at Karolinska Institutet have analysed brain images from 70-year-olds and estimated their brains’ biological age. They found that factors detrimental to vascular ...

Men with cardiovascular risks had brain volume changes earlier than women. Cardiovascular risk and obesity were associated with lower gray matter volume in men ages 55 to 64. Brain volume loss ...

Explore brain anatomy, from the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brain stem, to the deep structures within the brain, such as the limbic system and basal ganglia.

This research paper highlights that brain health deteriorates with age, particularly in terms of cerebral blood flow (CBF) and arterial transit time (ATT), key markers of brain vascular health.
