A Quantitative Comparison of Clinically Employed Parameters in the Assessment of Acute Cerebral Ischemia Using Dynamic Susceptibility Contrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging

A Quantitative Comparison of Clinically Employed Parameters in the Assessment of Acute Cerebral Ischemia Using Dynamic Susceptibility Contrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Purpose: Perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (P-MRI) is part of the mismatch concept employed for therapy decisions in acute ischemic stroke. Using dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) MRI the time-to-maximum (Tmax) parameter is quite popular, but its inconsistently defined computation, arterial i...
