Stratification of heterogeneous diffusion MRI ischemic lesion with kurtosis imaging: evaluation of mean diffusion and kurtosis MRI mismatch in an animal model of transient focal ischemia.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Ischemic tissue damage is heterogeneous, resulting in complex patterns in the widely used diffusion-weighted MRI. Our study examined the spatiotemporal characteristics of diffusion kurtosis imaging in an animal model of transient middle cerebral artery occlusion. METHODS Adult male Wistar rats (N=18) were subjected to 90 minutes middle cerebral artery occlusion. Multipa...
متن کاملStroke assessment with diffusional kurtosis imaging.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Despite being the gold standard technique for stroke assessment, conventional diffusion MRI provides only partial information about tissue microstructure. Diffusional kurtosis imaging is an advanced diffusion MRI method that yields, in addition to conventional diffusion information, the diffusional kurtosis, which may help improve characterization of tissue microstructure...
متن کاملDiffusion kurtosis is sensitive to hyperacute cerebral ischemia and increases with ischemic progression without renormalization
Introduction The outcome of stroke treatment relies in large part on reliable staging of ischemic tissue, and it remains a challenge to find the optimal MR techniques as such. Owing to the high sensitivity and specificity of conventional MR diffusion-weighted imaging in ischemic tissue delineation, additional clinically relevant information regarding ischemic tissue microstructure can be probed...
متن کاملParameters of diffusional kurtosis imaging for the diagnosis of acute cerebral infarction in different brain regions
Diffusional kurtosis imaging (DKI) is a new type diffusion-weighted sequence which measures the non-Gaussianity of water diffusion. The present study aimed to investigate whether the parameters of DKI could distinguish between differences in water molecule diffusion in various brain regions under the conditions of acute infarction and to identify the optimal DKI parameter for locating ischemic ...
متن کاملDiffusional Kurtosis Imaging and Motor Outcome in Acute Ischemic Stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Motor impairment is the most common deficit after stroke. Our aim was to evaluate whether diffusional kurtosis imaging can detect corticospinal tract microstructural changes in the acute phase for patients with first-ever ischemic stroke and motor impairment and to assess the correlations between diffusional kurtosis imaging-derived diffusion metrics for the corticospinal...
