Abstract

The gerbil model of unilateral cerebral ischemia has been used to test the temporal and spatial stability of the MRI T~2~ effects of oxygen‐17 water. Following unilateral carotid ligation, symptomatic animals were given a single large intraperitoneal injection of H~2~ ^17^O and the distribution and stability of the brain T~2~ effects were followed with a spin‐echo sequence. In contrast to the ischemic areas, the perfused tissue shows a marked and prolonged loss in intensity with little evidence of diffusion of the T~2~ effect of ^17^O into the ischemic tissue. © 1991 Academic Press, Inc.
