1 Couldwell, William T.; Jensen, Randy L.; Jensen, Elizabeth M.Development of contrast enhancement after long-term observation of a dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumorDysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumors (DNET) are usually benign lesions that arise in cortical regions and are discovered after new onset of seizure. These lesions have many different imaging characteristics. We report a patient with a presumed low-grade medial temporal lobe lesion that was follow...Brain tumor; Dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumors; DNET; Imaging; Seizures2006
2 Couldwell, William T.; Schmidt, Richard H.; Salzman, Karen L.; Chin, Steven S.Glioblastoma multiforme of the pineal regionGlioblastoma multiforme (GBMs) tumors are exceedingly rare tumors in the pineal region. We present three cases in which patients presented with a pineal/posterior third ventricular region mass and review all the previously reported cases in the literature. Pineal region GBM seems to be a very aggre...Glioblastoma multiforme; Hydrocephalus; Leptomeningeal dissemination; Malignant glioma; Perinaud's syndrome; Pineal region; Spinal metastases2006
3 Couldwell, William T.Inflammatory pseudotumor of the cavernous sinus and skull baseInflammatory pseudotumor is a non-neoplastic process of unknown etiology characterized by a proliferation of connective tissue with an inflammatory infiltrate. Intracranial inflammatory pseudotumors classically involve the cavernous sinus but can also occur in the supratentorial or infratentorial c...Intracranial neoplasm; Pseudotumor; Skull base2006
4 Couldwell, William T.Posterior fossa brain tumors and arterial hypertensionHypertension caused by arterial compression of the rostral ventrolateral medulla is well described. Much less information is available on the association between neurogenic hypertension and posterior fossa brain tumors. To date, multiple reports have supported the impression that a small subpopulat...Posterior fossa tumors; Brain stem; Arterial hypertension; Essential hypertension; EHTN2006
5 Couldwell, William T.; Harnsberger, H. RicSpontaneous regression of a cystic cavum septum pellucidumA persistent cavum septum pellucidum (CSP) is present in ~0.73% of adults, although its incidence ranges from 0.14 to 18.9% depending on the detection method. Cystic CSP is even rarer. A cyst causing mass within the CSP can obstruct the intraventricular foramen, leading to blockage of CSF flow and p...Cavum septum pellucidum; Cyst; Spontaneous regression; Decompression2006
6 Mishchenko, EugeneInfrared absorption and Raman scattering on coupled plasmon-phonon modes in superlatticesWe consider theoretically a superlattice formed by thin conducting layers separated spatially between insulating layers. The dispersion of two coupled phonon-plasmon modes of the system is analyzed by using Maxwell's equations, with the influence of retardation included. Both transmission for the fi...Infrared absorption; Raman scattering2006-04
