Abstract:
Objective To study the feasibility of cerebral perfusion weighted imaging(PWI)using superparamagnetic iron oxide particles(SPIO)Resovist in normal rabbits,and investigate the methodology and the proper contrast agent dose of SPIO in PWI.Methods All 30 rabbits were randomly divide into 5 groups(n=6 for each),group A,B,C,D were divided according to the different dose of Resovist(4,8,16 and 32 μmol Fe/kg)and group E was operated as control study with 0.2 mmol/kg Gd-DTPA.The dynamic MR perfusion imaging series were acquired in each group.The signal intensity time curves were analyzed in gray matter and white matter,and the parameters(rCBV,SRRmax,QrCBV,QSRR max)were calculated and compared in all groups and correlated with control one.Results a bolus injection was succeed for all studies.and a dose-dependent strong reduction in signal intensity of gray and white matter in all groups was demonstrated.The rCBV values of gray and white matter for group A,B,C,D and E were(50.48±3.84),(25.57±2.10);(94.69±2.60),(45.33±3.14);(141.13±6.26),(67.67±4.65);(243.75±5.90),(162.06±5.14);and(84.60±3.60),(41.36±2.18)ml/100 g,respectively.The SRRmax values of gray and white matter for group A,B,C,D and E were(13.70±1.50)%,(7.38±0.41)%;(31.01±4.06)%,(16.49±2.35)%;(43.81±3.42)%,(21.64±4.14)%;(64.49±5.35)%,(43.61±5.78)%;and(27.78±2.98)%,(14.42±2.25)%;respectively.The QrCBV values for group A,B,C,D and E were 1.98±0.07,2.09±0.11,2.09±0.07,1.50±0.01,and 2.05±0.03,respectively,and the QSRR max values for group A,B,C,D and E were 1.85±0.11,1.88±0.06,2.06±0.25,1.49±0.09,and 1.94±0.12,respectively.All above values among group were significantly different(P＜0.01).For the QrCBV and QSRR max values between group,there were no significant difference between group A and B,B and C,A and C;while the values of group A was significantly larger than those of group D(P＜0.01).Condusion Resovist(SPIO)can be used in the study of MR perfusion weighted imaging in the brain,and the proper contrast agent dose is 4-16 μmol Fe/kg.
