Dynamic CT perfusion imaging of acute stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Because cerebral perfusion imaging for acute stroke is unavailable in most hospitals, we investigated the feasibility of a method of perfusion scanning that can be performed rapidly during standard cranial CT. Our aim was to identify the scanning parameters best suited to indicate tissue at risk and to measure a perfusion limit to predict infarction. METHODS Seventy pat...
متن کاملDynamic CT perfusion imaging in subarachnoid hemorrhage-related vasospasm.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Nimodipine is a therapy that reduces morbidity and mortality in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), though the mechanisms by which it does so are not well understood. In a rabbit model of SAH, we studied the effects of nimodipine by using functional CT imaging. We hypothesized that the nimodipine treatment group would have (1) increased mean basilar artery diamet...
متن کاملAssessment of the reproducibility of postprocessing dynamic CT perfusion data.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Commercially available software programs for the conversion of dynamic CT perfusion (CTP) source data into cerebral blood volume (CBV), cerebral blood flow (CBF), and mean transit time (MTT) maps require operators to subjectively define parameters that are used in subsequent postprocessing calculations. Our purpose was to define the variability of CBV, CBF, and MTT values...
متن کاملDirect Comparison of Dynamic Susceptibility Weighted MR Perfusion with CT Perfusion in Brain Tumors
Introduction: Contrast Agents (CAs) are widely used as indicators to study quantitative perfusion and Blood Brain Barrier (BBB) permeability in MRI, and are useful in characterizing pathology [1]. A common assumption is that the relationship between longitudinal relaxation rate change and Gd concentration is linear. In general, this assumption depends on the size of the molecules to which the G...
متن کاملClinical Utility of Coronary CT Angiography with Stress Perfusion CT in Preoperative Cardiac Risk Evaluation
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Vascular surgery carries high operative risk. Recently developed cardiac computed tomography (CT) provides excellent imaging of coronary artery disease (CAD), as well as myocardial perfusions. We investigated the role of stress perfusion CT with coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) using 128-slice dual source CT (DSCT) in preoperative cardiac risk evaluation...
