Multiple Sclerosis and Chronic Cerbrospinal Venous Insufficiency Patient – This video follows a patient throughout the entire treatment process. MRI and CT diagnostic imaging, jugular vein angioplasyt, autologous stem cell implantation and post treatment analysis.
Google Tech Talk September 16, 2010 Breakthroughs in Imaging Neurovascular Diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis: Technical Aspects, Clinical Ramifications, and Understanding the Etiology of the Disease. Presented by Dr. E. Mark Haacke. ABSTRACT Magnetic Resonance Imaging has long been an important diagnostic tool for Multiple Sclerosis. Recent developments linking MS to venous malformations have highlighted the use of advanced techniques for imaging iron deposits and blood flow. We introduce here a number of new technical image acquisition and image processing concepts whose application may well extend into other diseases such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, stroke and traumatic brain injury. Finally, the development and data mining of worldwide data in specific diseases will also be discussed. ABOUT THE AUTHOR E. Mark Haacke is a world renown MRI researcher at Wayne State University. He won the Gold Medal in Kyoto in 2004 for his work on Susceptibility Weighted Imaging and Education. He is the past president of two MRI societies and has just formed “The International Society for Neurovascular Disease”. For the last 30 years, Dr. Haacke has focused on the physics and mathematics associated with the technical development of new imaging methods and their clinical applications.

Yesterday, we got her latest MRI results. She has 3 new lesions on her brain. The largest being half dollar size. If ye saw her Saturday night at the monthly gathering, you knew she could hardly walk, control her grip or say her words right. {Thank goodness most of our friends drink, so this does seem normal!} She is exacerbating, and the 3 new lesions are no help. That is the pain & health side. But here are some peripherals: *Insurance will not cover the drugs they want to put her on. *She is losing her T-Cell grant, because obviously she is too far gone for the study to be a factor. We will now pay out of pocket for all her meds. *I have been on the phone all morning talking to the VA, Govt. assistance and other programs. Not much help there, if any at all. *She is going to be even further out of the loop, something she hates, because her pain is high. *She believes she is a burden or strain on us/me, and I don’t seem to be able to convince her otherwise. Sick or not, she is my life, as most of ye are aware. Who would TMI be without Calypso? Not a pretty picture, eh?
First off, I have a new Flip Cam and seem to have cut my chin out of most of the video, lol. This is about how I found out I have Multiple Sclerosis. My Story so far.
This video describes an artist who uses her own MRIs of the brain to convery the beauty and complexity of the imperfect brain in her art. The artist has multiple sclerosis.
