Improved quantification of cerebral hemodynamics using individualized time thresholds for assessment of peak enhancement parameters derived from dynamic susceptibility contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging.

Assessment of cerebral ischemia often employs dynamic susceptibility contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DSC-MRI) with evaluation of various peak enhancement time parameters. All of these parameters use a single time threshold to judge the maximum tolerable peak enhancement delay that is s...
