Japanese Journal of National Medical Services 48(12) 1079-1082 1994
A 96-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of her head trauma. Neurological examinations reveald no abnormal findings. A computed tomography (CT) scan showed mass effect caused by a subdural hematoma over the right hemisphere. She gr...
A 68-year-old male presented with choroid plexus carcinoma in the left lateral ventricle manifesting as dysarthria and gait disturbance. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a homogeneously enhanced mass in the trigone of the left lateral ventricle. ...

Acquired resistance to erlotinib requires upregulation of phosphorylated Akt in EGFR expressing A-431 cancer cells
PEA-15 expression level, that is the downstream molecule of EGFR signal pathway, was inversely associated with WHO grade and may serve as an important prognostic factor for high-grade astrocytomas. High PEA-15 expression level displayed a signific...
The single voxel 1HMRS detection of lactate is a prognostic factor in patients with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma. Calculating the apparent diffusion coefficient value is useful for distinguishing lymphoma from glioblastoma. High b-value DWI re...
