## Abstract The principles of cerebral perfusion imaging by the method of dynamic susceptibility contrast magnetic resonance imaging (DSCโMRI) (bolus tracking) are described. The MRI signals underlying DSCโMRI are discussed. Tracer kinetics procedures are defined to calculate images of cerebral blo

## Abstract __In vivo__ echoโplanar MR imaging was used to measure apparent diffusion coefficients (ADC) of cerebral tissues in a comprehensive noninvasive evaluation of early ischemic brain damage induced by occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) in a cat model of acute regional stroke. Wit
## Abstract ## Purpose To evaluate quantitative cerebral blood flow (qCBF) with traditional timeโbased measurements or metrics of cerebral perfusion: time to peak (Tmax) and mean transit time (MTT) in stroke patients. ## Materials and Methods Nine ischemic stroke patients (four male, five female
## Abstract ## Purpose To investigate the contribution of perfusionโweighted MR imaging (PWI) by using the relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) ratio in the differential diagnosis of various intracranial spaceโoccupying lesions. ## Materials and Methods This study involved 105 patients with les
Temporary focal ischaemia was induced in wild-type C57Black/6 mice by thread occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCA). Recirculation was started after 60 min and maintained for 24 h, after which the mouse brain was frozen in situ. Development of the cerebral infarct was monitored by diffusion-,
