A Retrospective Study Of Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings In Migraine Patients

Purpose: The pathogenesis of this study was to our clinic fortreatment in migraine patients were analyzed retrospectively to clinicalfeatures of migraine attack and migraine brain changes and radiologicalcharacteristics of patients, thus, a better understanding of migrainemechanisms for better clinical diagnosis, treatment, control seizurefrequency to help.Method: November2013to November2014visit Bethune FirstHospital of Jilin University neurology clinic of52patients with migraine,while select age, gender relatively matched60cases of healthy people asa control group for all patients in and control group head MRI scanexamination, recording brain deep white matter hyperintensities, lateralside WML, screen high signal, infarction and infarct-like lesions,statistics lesion size, number. Collect relevant clinical information,including: gender, age, occupation, headache nature, the first attack time,with or without aura, duration, seizure frequency, associated symptoms,predisposing factors, personal history, family history, medical history andmedication history. Using SPSS17.0and Excel software for data analysis. Results:52patients for clinical onset of migraine characterized bycontrasting the first onset of migraine patients ranged in age from8to34years old, the average age of onset (23.6±6.6) years. There are six casesof threatened attacks, accounting for12%of the migraine group. Seizurefrequency in patients≥5times/month,8cases, accounting for15.4%ofthe total. A total of35cases (67.3%) occurred in the severity of migraineattacks during the different associated symptoms. In52cases of migrainepatients,12cases were observed in varying degrees of white matterdamage, and its incidence is greater than the proportion of healthy people.With the extension of course, the greater the possibility to change thehead MRI, but its number of lesions and migraine frequency and durationof no relevance. Also found that these lesions occur in the frontal portion,but the present study in the parietal lobe, basal ganglia, brain stem, alsofound a small amount of lesions.Conclusions:1. Migraine patient with head high incidence of MRIchanges in normal healthy people.2. Migraine patients with head MRI ofthe degree of change (the number of lesions, etc.) may be involved inmigraine course.3. Migraine performance parts caused by head MRIwere located in the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, basal ganglia and brainstemlesions found.
