8 lip 2024 · The hippocampus is best imaged in the coronal plane, angled perpendicular to the long axis of the hippocampal body. The three parts of the hippocampus (head, body and tail) can be identified based on morphology and by using local landmarks 3 .
25 lut 2022 · MR Imaging. MRI is the imaging modality of choice for evaluation of the hippocampus. Besides the standard brain protocol, sequences dedicated to hippocampal study are used according to specific clinical scenarios such as epilepsy, dementia, or transient global amnesia (TGA) (Table 1) (8).
The hippocampus is a critical brain structure involved in memory and spatial navigation.
13 lip 2019 · Hippocampal calcification has been hypothesized to be related to vascular fibrosis and calcification leading to neural loss in affected individuals 3,5. This process tends to be limited to the hippocampal tail and infrequently progress to involve the head and body 3. Microvascular calcifications are located in the walls of precapillaries and ...
23 paź 2023 · This review aims to summarize the neuroimaging features of the hippocampus and its common pathologies. It provides an overview of the hippocampal anatomy on magnetic resonance imaging and discusses how various imaging techniques can be used to assess the hippocampus.
The hippocampus is a complex structure located in the mesial temporal lobe that plays a critical role in cognitive and memory-related processes. The hippocampal formation consists of the dentate gyrus, hippocampus proper, and subiculum, and its importance in the neural circuitry makes it a key anatomic structure to evaluate in neuroimaging studies.
20 sty 2017 · Magnetic resonance imaging is the preferred imaging technique for evaluating the hippocampus. The main indications requiring tailored imaging sequences of the hippocampus are medically refractory epilepsy and dementia.
