Abstract

We correlated FPD-CBCT measurements of CBV and MR ADC lesion volumes with histologically assessed infarct volume. As expected, ADC is a very accurate and precise method for determining the extent of infarction. FPD-CBCT CBV lesion volumes are correlated to the size of the infarct. Improvement of FPD-CBCT image quality provides an opportunity to establish quantitative CBV measurement in the angiography suite.
