Quantification of afferent vessels shows reduced brain vascular density in subjects with leukoaraiosisDixon M Moody
Department of Radiology, Wake Forest University School of Medicine, Medical Center Blvd, Winston Salem, NC 27157, USA
Radiology 233:883-90. 2004..To investigate vessel density changes with increasing age in three areas of the brain and to correlate these changes with leukoaraiosis (LA) on the basis of magnetic resonance (MR) images and location in deep white matter (WM)...

J Neurol Sci 203:159-63. 2002..In conclusion, our studies support the concept that LA results from chronic ischemia due to age-related vascular pathology...
Anatomical analysis of the developing cerebral vasculature in premature neonates: absence of precapillary arteriole-to-venous shuntsJohn A Anstrom
Department of Radiology, Wake Forest University School of Medicine, Winston Salem, North Carolina 27157, USA
Pediatr Res 52:554-60. 2002..We conclude that precapillary arteriole-to-venous shunts are not a significant factor leading to GMH...

Department of Radiology, Wake Forest University School of Medicine, Winston Salem, NC 27157, USA
Radiat Res 164:662-8. 2005..We suggest that the early (10-week) and persistent vascular damage that occurs after a prolonged whole-brain irradiation fractionation scheme may play an important role in the development of late delayed radiation-induced brain injury...

From the Department of Pathology, Wake Forest University School of Medicine, Medical Center Blvd, Winston Salem, NC 27157, USA
J Neuropathol Exp Neurol 68:1147-54. 2009..e. remnants of regressing vasculature) were also observed in Ammon's horn, suggesting vascular degeneration in the MTS hippocampus. These findings may help further our understanding of the pathophysiology of MTS...

Department of Radiology, Wake Forest University School of Medicine, Winston-Salem, North Carolina 2715.7, USA
Pediatr Neurol 30:46-53. 2004..These data support our suggestion that the structural immaturity of these veins in premature neonates is causally related to the high incidence of germinal matrix hemorrhage in these patients...
