The artery of Davidoff and Schechter is a dural branch of the posterior cerebral artery that can supply the meninges close to the falcotentorial junction. It is usually not identified on angiography except when enlarged in the setting of a dural AVF or meningioma. The impact on treatment of the artery of Davidoff and Schechter supply to a fistula is not well-described in the literature. The authors' retrospective analysis of patients with dural AVFs treated at the Toronto Western Hospital between 2006 and 2018 identified 6 patients with dural AVFs receiving supply from the artery of Davidoff and Schechter (of a total of 173 patients with dural AVFs). All patients were initially treated by transarterial embolization using liquid embolic agents. Three patients required a second endovascular procedure partly due to residual supply from the artery of Davidoff and Schechter.

The authors report a multicenter multireader study that was designed to compare spiral with standard-of-care Cartesian postcontrast structural brain MR imaging on the basis of relative performance in 10 metrics of image quality, artifact prevalence, and diagnostic benefit. Seven clinical sites acquired 88 total subjects. For each subject, sites acquired 2 postcontrast MR imaging scans: a spiral 2D T1 spin-echo, and 1 of 4 routine Cartesian 2D T1 spin-echo/TSE scans. Nine neuroradiologists independently reviewed each subject, with the matching pair of spiral and Cartesian scans compared side-by-side, and scored the subject on 10 image-quality metrics. Spiral was superior to Cartesian in 7 of 10 metrics (flow artifact mitigation, SNR, GM/WM contrast, image sharpness, lesion conspicuity, preference for diagnosing abnormal enhancement, and overall intracranial image quality), comparable in 1 of 10 metrics (motion artifacts), and inferior in 2 of 10 metrics (susceptibility artifacts, overall extracranial image quality). Spiral 2D T1 spin-echo for routine structural brain MR imaging is feasible in the clinic with conventional scanners and was preferred by neuroradiologists for overall postcontrast intracranial evaluation.

Data were retrospectively collected for 105 patients with acute ischemic stroke (55 patients with successful recanalization [TICI 2b/2c/3] and large-vessel occlusions and 50 patients without interventions). Final infarct volumes were calculated using DWI and FLAIR 24 hours following CTP imaging. RAPID and the Vitrea Bayesian CTP algorithm (with 3 different settings) predicted infarct and penumbra volumes for comparison with final infarct volumes to assess software performance. RAPID and Vitrea default setting had the most accurate final infarct volume prediction in patients with interventions. Default Vitrea and RAPID were the most and least accurate in determining final infarct volume for patients without an intervention, respectively. Compared with RAPID, the Vitrea default setting was noninferior for patients with interventions and superior in penumbra estimation for patients without interventions as indicated by mean infarct differences and correlations with final infarct volumes.
