- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>The main study parameters follow from the MR scan outcomes. The cerebral blood<br /><br>flow will be measured in ml/g/min per region of the brain. DTI data is<br /><br>expressed in fractional anisotropy (FA) and Apparent Diffusion Coefficient<br /><br>(ADC) values for all regions of interest.<br /><br>The endpoint for the individual patient is reached after the last MR scan is<br /><br>made. Standard clinical follow-up will last until the patient is 18 years of<br /><br>age.</p><br>
- Secondary Outcome Measures
