Notes on Bladder Reflexes (Jan 29)
Published:
In an atonic bladder, reflex contractions of the detrusor muscle are typically absent or significantly reduced

Published:
- The bright signal seen on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) of acute infarcts persists for approximately 10 to 14 days
- Persistent areas of hypodensity in the brain after an infarct may result from gliosis or brain necrosis replaced by CSF.
- Simple definitions of T1- vs T2-weighted MRI
- DWI MRI allows visualization of acute cerebral infarcts earlier than conventional MRI
- Use of CT for detecting hemorrhage versus ischemia
