Longitudinal Studies to Identify Biomarkers for Sturge-Weber Syndrome
Individuals with Sturge-Weber Syndrome (SWS) sometimes have brain involvement which can result in seizures, stroke-like episodes and neurologic deficits. The purpose of this study is to integrate longitudinal clinical data, radiological data, and blood biomarkers of Sturge-Weber syndrome patients. The research aims are: To integrate longitudinal clinical data, radiological data, …
High-resolution Phosphocreatine and Creatine Mapping of Human Muscle and Brain
In this study, we aim to develop and validate a noninvasive approach for quantifying and imaging energy metabolism, without contrast agents, on widely available clinical MRI scanners. Briefly, this technique allows specific and selective imaging of the energy metabolite phosphocreatine (PCr), in vivo and non-invasively. PCr is one of the …
GammaPod Registry and Quality of Life Nomogram
This study is a prospective, single arm study (registry) summarizing patient-level adverse-event and tumor outcomes as well as a number of feasibility and dosimetric characteristics of delivering a single-fraction boost with the GammaPod.
Global Blood-Brain Barrier Disruption and Post-Stroke Cognitive Decline
The goal of this study is to gain a better understanding of why some individuals who have suffered a stroke experience post-stroke cognitive decline. Specifically this study is testing whether global disruption of the blood-brain barrier detected at the time of the stroke is informative about the risk of post-stroke …
