Application of CT perfusion imaging in detection of changes in cerebral microcirculation / 第三军医大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the changes in cerebral microcirculation after subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH) and to study its correlation with cerebral vasospasm(CVS).Methods Eighty-five SAH patients and 35 controls,enrolled in this study as perspective study subjects,were divided into SAH group and control group,CVS group and non-CVS group(nCVS),symptomatic CVS(sCVS) group and asymptomatic CVS(asCVS) group.All the subjects underwent CT perfusion(CTP) and the associated parameters,including cerebral blood flow(CBF),cerebral blood volume(CBV) and mean transit time(MTT),were recorded for final analysis.Results Compared to the control group,the CBF and MTT were significantly changed in SAH group(P
