For the past 10 years, functional MRI (fMRI) has seen rapid progress in both clinical and basic science research. Most of the imaging techniques are based on the blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) contrast which arises from the field perturbation of the paramagnetic deoxyhemoglobin due to the
## Abstract ## Purpose To demonstrate the feasibility of sequential diffusionβweighted (DW) and perfusionβweighted (PW) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of a recently developed porcine stroke model and to evaluate the evolution of cerebral perfusion and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) ove
The measurement of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of water in brains of stroke patients is used in models developed to help distinguish reversible from irreversible ischemic injury. The ADC by conventional methods may be overestimated by the presence of cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) in sulci
