Stroke
January 2014
From the Melbourne Brain Centre, Florey Neuroscience Institute, University of Melbourne, Australia (A.B., S.D.); and Department of Neurology, Hunter New England Health (V.K., C.L., N.J.S., M.P.), and School of Health Sciences, University of Newcastle (P.S.), NSW, Australia.
Background And Purpose: Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is a perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique that does not require contrast administration and thus may be more practical in hyperacute stroke than susceptibility-weighted bolus-tracking perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI). However, a threshold for ASL measurement of the ischemic penumbra needs to be determined.
Methods: A total of 58 patients with acute hemispheric ischemic stroke were imaged within 6 hours of symptom onset with MRI including ASL, diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI), and PWI, after perfusion computed tomography (CTP).
