Abstract

Review of literature data concerning genetically determined blood vessel diseases is presented. These disorders are a cause of a process similar to Binswanger's disease but occurring familial. Recurrent TIA, ischemic strokes and other kind of blood supply disturbances lead to numerous and various intensity vasogenic brain tissue damage, particularly in the white matter. Progressive neurological symptoms and dementia form the picture of subcortical leukoencephalopathy in several members of family. Moyamoya disease, fibromuscular dysplasia, hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, hereditary cerebral hemorrhage with amyloidosis, pseudoxanthoma elasticum, two types of subcortical encephalopathy in Japan, HERNS and CADASIL are described.

A penalized likelihood approach to magnetic resonance image reconstruction.

Currently, images acquired via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) technology are reconstructed using the discrete inverse Fourier transform. While computationally convenient, this approach is not able to filter out noise. This is a serious limitation because the amount of noise in MRI and fMRI can be substantial. In this paper, we propose an alternative approach to reconstruction, based on penalized likelihood methodology. In particular, we focus on non-linear shrinkage estimators and show that this approach achieves a great reduction in integrated mean squared error (IMSE) of the estimated image with respect to the currently used estimator. This approach is extremely fast and easy to implement computationally. In addition, it can be combined with various alternative approaches to MR image reconstruction and can be easily adapted to other, non-MRI contexts, in which the observed data and the quantities of interest are related via a linear transform.
