Serial Diffusion Perfusion imaging following pMCAO

3 sets of 4, 1 hourly images, showing the diffusion perfusion assessment of the ischaemic penumbra following a permanent MCAO in the rat. 1. the quantitative CBF. 2. the ADC maps. and 3. the diffusion perfusion mismatch
Serial diffusion perfusion imaging for assessing the ischaemic penumbra following permanent MCAO in the rat.  Quantitative CBF (top row) and ADC (middle row) maps show the perfusion and diffusion deficit on a single slice at 1 hour to 4 hour following stroke.  Thresholded CBF and ADC maps show the diffusion perfusion mismatch (bottom row: mismatch shown in black)
