Zusammenfassung:
Magnetisation transfer (MT) imaging can potentially serve as a marker for loss of tissue integrity. Moreover increased pathologic specificity is expected from quantitative MT (qMT) as compared to the assessment of the semi-quantitative MT ratio (MTR) images only. Here, we present an evaluation of qMTI data over three consecutive MRIs within the first 10 days for patients suffering from middle cerebral artery stroke with different progression of symptoms. Results seem to be superior to simple MTR measurements and possibly allow for early statement of prognosis and efficacy of therapeutic methods.
