Diffusion- and perfusion-weighted MRI patterns in borderzone infarcts.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The pathophysiology of borderzone infarcts is not well understood. We investigated whether combined diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI) could identify pathophysiologically meaningful categories of borderzone infarcts. METHODS Seventeen patients with borderzone infarcts were identified from the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center Stroke...
متن کاملDiffusion & Perfusion Weighted Imaging
This talk will shed some first light on the two imaging concepts diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and perfusion weighted imaging (PWI). On the one side one may criticize that for the lecture time given, this will definitely be an incredible or even impossible task: To give sufficient credit to both of these importantant imaging concepts. On the other side one could say: ’Come on, let’s talk abo...
متن کاملDiffusion Weighted/Tensor Imaging, Functional MRI and Perfusion Weighted Imaging in Glioblastoma—Foundations and Future
In this article, we review the basics of diffusion tensor imaging and functional MRI, their current utility in preoperative neurosurgical mapping, and their limitations. We also discuss potential future applications, including implementation of resting state functional MRI. We then discuss perfusion and diffusion-weighted imaging and their application in advanced neuro-oncologic practice. We ex...
متن کاملMonitoring Random Molecular Diffusion and Tissue Perfusion in Rat liver by Diffusion Weighted Proton MRI
Introduction Diffusion weighted (DW) H MRI may be useful for diagnosis of fibrosis in diffuse liver diseases and for monitoring response of liver tumors to therapy. However, a very wide range of ADC values have been reported for the liver in both human [1,2] and animal [3,4], and some reported values are greater than the free diffusion of water [5]. In addition, on death a dramatic decrease in ...
متن کاملAutomated Perfusion-Weighted MRI Metrics
This thesis describes and validates a new method for calculating perfusion-weighted MRI (PWI) metrics, a non-invasive technique for calculating cerebral blood flow by tracking a bolus of contrast agent. Past methods to do this calculation require human intermediaries and can lead to errors in the presence of delay and dispersion of the contrast bolus, situations which occur commonly in the path...
