简要总结
What happens in the borderzone of a cerebral hemorrhage remains widely onknown and furhter the best timing for doing MR to look for vascular pathology in cerebral hemorrhage has not yet been determined. In this study we do acute MRS, a non-invasive imaging mathod to detemine the biochemsty in the border zone and structural MRI for vascular malformation. We repeat structural MRI after 8 weeks.
详细描述
In this study we want to investigate the ability of MRI to identify underlying pathology (tumor or vascular malformations) in acute patients admitted with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Today MRI-scan is normally done 3-4 weeks after symptom onset but very little is known about the early use of MRI to detect underlying pathology. This would allow an early intervension and less uncertainty for the patients.
We further want to investigate the metabolic penumbra-zone surrounding the hematoma. It is the current perception in the litterature that this zone represent a metabolic zone marked by apoptosis and inflammation rather than ischemia.
We are planning to:
When patients arrive in our stroke department they will within 7 hours be subject to MRI scan with the protocoled sequences. Standard sequences: Axial T2, axial DWI, Sagittal T1, T2 flair og axial GRE-sequence.
Susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI)
