Open AccessDistinct grey and white matter changes are associated with the phenomenology of visual hallucinations in Lewy Body Disease
Visual hallucinations in Lewy body disease (LBD) can be differentiated based on phenomenology into minor phenomena (MVH) and complex hallucinations (CVH). MVH include a variety of phenomena, such as illusions,...

Open AccessSex differences in trigeminal neuralgia: a focus on radiological and clinical characteristics
It is well established that trigeminal neuralgia is more prevalent in females than in males. Neurovascular compression with morphological changes of the trigeminal root represents the most recognized etiologic...

Open AccessVisual hallucinations in Lewy body disease: pathophysiological insights from phenomenology
Visual hallucinations (VH) in Lewy body disease (LBD) have a heterogenous phenomenology classified into minor phenomena (MVH) and complex hallucinations (CVH). Mechanisms underpinning VH and their temporal asp...

Open AccessHypothalamic structural integrity and temporal complexity of cortical information processing at rest in migraine without aura patients between attacks
The hypothalamus has been attributed an important role during the premonitory phase of a migraine attack. Less is known about the role played by the hypothalamus in the interictal period and its relationship w...

Open AccessThalamo-cortical networks in subtypes of migraine with aura patients
We searched for differences in resting-state functional connectivity (FC) between brain networks and its relationship with the microstructure of the thalamus between migraine with pure visual auras (MA), and m...

Open AccessHaemodynamic activity characterization of resting state networks by fractal analysis and thalamocortical morphofunctional integrity in chronic migraine
Chronic migraine (CM) can be associated with aberrant long-range connectivity of MRI-derived resting-state networks (RSNs). Here, we investigated how the fractal dimension (FD) of blood oxygenation level depen...

Open AccessPatients with chronic migraine without history of medication overuse are characterized by a peculiar white matter fiber bundle profile
We investigated intracerebral fiber bundles using a tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS) analysis of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) data to verify microstructural integrity in patients with episodic (MO) and ...

Increased neural connectivity between the hypothalamus and cortical resting-state functional networks in chronic migraine
The findings of resting-state functional MRI studies have suggested that abnormal functional integration between interconnected cortical networks characterises the brain of patients with migraine. The aim of t...

Open AccessCerebral gray matter volume in patients with chronic migraine: correlations with clinical features
To date, few MRI studies have been performed in patients affected by chronic migraine (CM), especially in those without medication overuse. Here, we performed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) voxel-based morph...

RETRACTED ARTICLE: Cognitive deficits in multiple sclerosis: a review of functional MRI studies
Cognitive dysfunction frequently occurs during the course of multiple sclerosis (MS). In patients with MS the severity of cognitive manifestations is not closely related to indices of structural brain damage. ...

Tolosa-Hunt syndrome in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus
We report a case of Tolosa-Hunt syndrome (THS) in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus studied with MRI. Magnetic resonance showed enlargement of the cavernous sinus and compression of the carotid syph...
