## Abstract Diffusionβweighted MRI is commonly used in the diagnosis and evaluation of ischemic stroke because of the rapid decrease observed in the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of tissue water following ischemia. Although this observation has been clinically useful for many years, the biop

Cerebral metabolite concentrations were measured in infant rats using proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging. Measurements were made prior to, during and after exposure of rats (6-and 7-day-old) to unilateral cerebral hypoxia-ischemia (right carotid artery occlusion 2 h 8% oxygen). Data clu
## Abstract Our study describes the time course of necrotic damage to the rat brain resulting from Leksell Gamma Knife (LGK) irradiation at a dose that was previously considered to be subnecrotic. A lesion induced in the rat hippocampus by 35 Gy irradiation was monitored by MRI, MRS, and DWβMRI for
## Abstract To obtain a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying early changes in the brain water apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) observed in cerebral ischemia, dynamic changes in the ADC of water and in the energy status were measured at postnatal day 8 or 9 in neonatal rat brains af
Iron can contribute to hypoxic-ischemic brain damage by catalyzing the formation of free radicals. The immature brain has high iron levels and limited antioxidant defenses. The objective of this study was to describe the early alterations in nonheme iron histochemistry following a hypoxic-ischemic (
