Imaging in spine and spinal cord malformations
Spinal and spinal cord malformations are collectively named spinal dysraphisms. They
arise from defects occurring in the early embryological stages of gastrulation (weeks 2–3), …

Magnetic resonance imaging of spinal dysraphism
Spinal cord development occurs through three consecutive periods. Gastrulation (weeks 2–3)
is characterized by conversion of the embryonic disk from a bilaminar to a trilaminar …

Medulloblastoma variants: age-dependent occurrence and relation to Gorlin syndrome—a new clinical perspective
Purpose: We aimed to test the hypothesis that medulloblastoma (MB) variants show a
different age distribution and clinical behavior reflecting their specific biology, and that MB …
