Do early MRI signals predict lesion size in a neonatal stroke rat model?

چکیده
SUMMARY In this study, we compared lesion size by using VADC and VT2 at 0, 2, 5, 24, and 48 hours and histologic lesions at 48 hours in a P7 rat stroke model. The best correlation between VHISTO and VADC was at H0, and between VHISTO and VT2, at H2-H5. Early MR imaging signals allowed excluding "no-lesion" and "no-reflow" animals to help standardize this neonatal stroke model and predict lesion size.

Comparing diffusion-weighted and T2-weighted MR imaging for the quantification of infarct size in a neonatal rat hypoxic-ischemic model at 24h post-injury.
PURPOSE In a neonatal rat model of hypoxic-ischemic (HI) brain injury, using T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), we aim to determine the best MRI method of lesion quantification that reflects infarct size. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty 7-day-old rats underwent MRI 24h after HI brain injury was induced. Lesion size relative to whole brain was measured using T2WI and...
متن کاملEvaluating effects of normobaric oxygen therapy in acute stroke with MRI-based predictive models
BACKGROUND Voxel-based algorithms using acute multiparametric-MRI data have been shown to accurately predict tissue outcome after stroke. We explored the potential of MRI-based predictive algorithms to objectively assess the effects of normobaric oxygen therapy (NBO), an investigational stroke treatment, using data from a pilot study of NBO in acute stroke. METHODS The pilot study of NBO enro...

Introduction: Brain tumors such as glioma are among the most aggressive lesions, which result in a very short life expectancy in patients. Image segmentation is highly essential in medical image analysis with applications, particularly in clinical practices to treat brain tumors. Accurate segmentation of magnetic resonance data is crucial for diagnostic purposes, planning surgical treatments, a...
متن کاملDoes cranial ultrasound imaging identify arterial cerebral infarction in term neonates?
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of cranial ultrasound (CUS) for detection of neonatal arterial territory cerebral infarction in term infants. METHODS CUS scans from term infants with neonatal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) evidence of neonatal infarction were reviewed. The scans were grouped by acquisition time after birth: 1-3 days (early) or 4-14 days (late). RESULTS Brain...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) after transient ischemic attack (TIA) or minor stroke may be affected by the relative timing of imaging. We measured the impact of scanning an individual patient late versus early after TIA and minor stroke. METHODS Two hundred sixty-three TIA or minor stroke (National Institute of Health Stroke Scale score ≤3) patients with a...
