Willinsky R, Peltz J, Da Costa L, Agid R, Farb R, terBrugge K
AJNR Am J Neuroradiol . 2009 Mar; 30(5):1035-40. PMID: 19299485
Background And Purpose: Endovascular embolization is a well-established treatment of ruptured intracranial aneurysms, but concern about its long-term stability and its ability to prevent rehemorrhage are still present. We evaluated...

Swartz R, Bhuta S, Farb R, Agid R, Willinsky R, terBrugge K, et al.
Neurology . 2009 Feb; 72(7):627-34. PMID: 19221296
Background: Conventional arterial imaging focuses on the vessel lumen but lacks specificity because different pathologies produce similar luminal defects. Wall imaging can characterize extracranial arterial pathology, but imaging intracranial walls...

Da Costa L, Thines L, Dehdashti A, Wallace M, Willinsky R, Tymianski M, et al.
J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry . 2008 Nov; 80(4):376-9. PMID: 19028763
Objectives: Posterior fossa brain arteriovenous malformations (PFbAVMs) are rare lesions. Management is complicated by eloquence of adjacent neurological structures, multimodality treatment is often necessary, and obliteration is not always possible....

Agid R, Willinsky R, Lee S, terBrugge K, Farb R
AJNR Am J Neuroradiol . 2008 May; 29(8):1570-4. PMID: 18499789
Background And Purpose: A substantial percentage of coiled aneurysms are associated with persistent filling of an aneurysmal component due to incomplete initial treatment or re-growth. Traditionally follow-up of coiled aneurysms...

Fanning N, Pedroza A, Willinsky R, terBrugge K
AJNR Am J Neuroradiol . 2007 May; 28(5):875-6. PMID: 17494661
For anatomic and technical reasons, it is often difficult to achieve guiding-catheter stability in the segmental arteries during embolization of spinal vascular lesions. We have developed a segmental artery exchange...

Kimchi T, Willinsky R, Spears J, Lee S, Ter Brugge K
Neuroradiology . 2007 Jan; 49(3):223-9. PMID: 17200868
Introduction: Endovascular aneurysm repair with coils has become a safe and effective alternative to surgical clipping. Efforts have been made to create coils that will facilitate aneurysm healing and reduce...

Neuroradiology . 2006 Sep; 48(11):787-94. PMID: 17009025
Introduction: To evaluate the clinical role of CT angiography (CTA) in patients with acute subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) for treatment decision-making. Methods: Consecutive patients with acute SAH had CTA using a...

Neuroradiology . 2006 May; 48(8):521-7. PMID: 16703359
The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of previously reported neuroimaging signs in establishing or excluding the diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). In a retrospective study,...

Neuroradiology . 2003 Dec; 46(2):156-60. PMID: 14655033
There are multiple transvenous approaches for treatment of cavernous dural arteriovenous fistulae (DAVF). The choice of a specific route depends on the compartment of the cavernous sinus involved in the...
