ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the possibility to obtain the cranial subtraction computed tomography perfusion imaging (sCTP) from the CTP examination, and to explore preliminary application value of sCTP. Methods Cerebral sCTP obtained from source imaging data of 11 patients (10 with stroke and 1 with brain tumor) were analyzed with subtraction software and perfusion 3 software at GE AW4.2 workstation. The parametric maps and region of interest (ROI) value of blood flow (BF), blood volume (BV), mean transit time (MTT) and/or permeability surface (PS) were generated from the CTP and sCTP imaging data respectively. Results ①The technical success rate of cranial sCTP created from CTP sources imaging data was 100%, and the post-processing time of sCTP was about from 1.0 to 2.5 h. The mappings and values of BF, BV, MTT and PS of ROI were all successfully obtained from sCTP and CTP imaging data. ②The cerebral mappings of BF, BV, MTT and PS obtained from sCTP were similar to those from CTP, which all depicted accurately the lesions and their microcirculation hemodynamics changes. ③Just like those from CTP, the values of BF, BV, MTT and PS of nidus obtained from sCTP were significantly different from those of the near and the contralateral corresponding cerebral tissues (P<0.025). Conclusion sCTP can be generated successfully with subtraction and perfusion imaging software. It is an alternative solution for functional diagnosis of stroke and brain neoplasms.
