Mild cognitive impairment: apparent diffusion coefficient in regional gray matter and white matter structures.
PURPOSE To prospectively evaluate regional alterations in the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of cortical gray and white matter and subcortical structures that are known to be involved in mild cognitive impairment (MCI). MATERIALS AND METHODS Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging was performed in 13 patients with MCI (nine men, four women; mean age, 74 years +/- 6 [standard deviation]) and 13 ...
متن کاملReflection coefficient and permeability of urea and ethylene glycol in the human red cell membrane
The reflection coefficient (sigma) and permeability (P) of urea and ethylene glycol were determined by fitting the equations of Kedem and Katchalsky (1958) to the change in light scattering produced by adding a permeable solute to a red cell suspension. The measurements incorporated three important modifications: (a) the injection artifact was eliminated by using echinocyte cells; (b) the use o...
متن کاملDifferent apparent diffusion coefficient: water content correlations of gray and white matter during early ischemia.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Early and accurate diagnosis of brain edema in stroke patients is essential for the selection of appropriate treatment. We examined the correlations between the changes in the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), regional water content, and tissue ultrastructure during early focal cerebral ischemia. METHODS The left middle cerebral arteries of cats were occluded with a...
متن کاملBiomechanical Analysis of CNS Gray Matter in Tension and Compression
The purpose of this study is to survey cross section changes of the animal brain samples during the tension and compression tests and comparison of the experimental results for three animals: bovine, sheep, and rabbit. A linear elastic theory with considering the necking in tension and barreling in compression has been considered for brain tissue. Bridgman method for tension and cross section u...
متن کاملRed Cell Membrane Permeability Deduced from Bulk Diffusion Coefficients
The permeability coefficients of dog red cell membrane to tritiated water and to a series of[(14)C]amides have been deduced from bulk diffusion measurements through a "tissue" composed of packed red cells. Red cells were packed by centrifugation inside polyethylene tubing. The red cell column was pulsed at one end with radiolabeled solute and diffusion was allowed to proceed for several hours. ...
