Mri in the assessment of cerebral injury and cerebroprotective effects of renal denervation in resistant arterial hypertension

Thus, it has been revealed that patients with RH are characterised by a high incidence of structural brain alterations based on MRI assessments. A year after bilateral renal denervation, there are significant improvement in intracranial hypertension signs and decrease in the incidence of fine focal brain lesions, without a significant change in the CSF dynamics parameters (Table 1). Figure 1 shows a clinical example of a decrease in the number of fine focal brain lesions after the intervention.
