An Experimental Study on Hemodynamic Parameter Changes in Hyperacute Cerebral Infarction / 实用放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To research the brain hemodynamic changes in hyperacute cerebral infarction. Methods Focal cerebral ischemia models were presented in 42 healthy New Zealand rabbits by obstructing the unilateral middle cerebral artery with modified O’Brein method. Dynamic scans with intravenous bolus injection of contrast were performed at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6h separately after operation by Siemens Somatom Plus 4 Power spiral CT scanner. Then data were input into Siemens Magic View 50 workstation and processed with perfusion CT/VA 10B system. Six cerebral blood functional perfusion maps were obtained. rCBF, rCBV, rTP, rTS of bilateral symmetric interesting regions were calculated. Results Between 0.5-6 hours after operation, the rCBF and rCBV of ischemic cores and peri-ischemic areas decreased subsequently along with times of ischemia developing. rTP、rTS of cores increased at first, then decreased to 0. rTP, rTS of peri-ischemic areas prolonged at all times. Conclusion The ischemic degree, perfusion state of ischemic tissues in brain can be estimated by hemodynamic parameters, which provide useful information for the diagnosis, therapy and prognosis of hyperacute cerebral infarction.
