Understanding early human brain development is of great clinical importance, as many
neurological and neurobehavioral disorders have their origin in early structural and …

Anumber of techniques have been developed during the past four decades to evaluate
cerebral perfusion. The oldest used 133Xe, a lipophilic radioactive tracer that easily diffuses …

Abstract Study Objectives: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is commonly associated with
cognitive and functional deficits, some of which are resolved after continuous positive airway …

Diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) is a sensitive and reliable marker of cerebral ischemia. Within
minutes of an ischemic event in the brain, the microscopic motion of water molecules …

This study was designed to determine whether formalin fixation alters diffusion parameters
in the infarcted brain. Diffusion tensor images were obtained from anesthetized mice 1 hr …

Since its introduction in the early 1990s, diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI) has played a crucial role in the non-invasive evaluation of tissue microstructure of …

Background and Purpose—Recent studies have shown that the brain ischemic area defined
by the map of decreased apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) obtained by diffusion-weighted …

This review gives an overview of the application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in
experimental models of brain disorders. MRI is a noninvasive and versatile imaging modality …

Whether the water channel protein AQP4 is involved in the very early cell swelling and brain
oedema observed with cerebral hypoxia–ischaemia (HI) and whether this response …

Selective intracellular (IC) and extracellular (EC) brain water apparent diffusion coefficient
(ADC) values were measured in normal and ischemic rat brain. Selective T1‐relaxation …
