Abstract:
Objective To explore the application value of SWI in hyperacute ischemic cerebral infarction.Methods 40 patients with massive hyperacute ischemic cerebral infarction in middle cerebral artery (MCA)territory were enrolled successively who underwent MR imaging with conventional MRI,DWI,MRA and SWI sequence immediately.The MR images were analyzed by two senior neuroimaging physicians and the results were recorded.The number of thrombosis at MCA showed on SWI was compared with that showed on conventional MR sequence and the number of MCA stenosis or occlusion showed on MRA,the length of thrombosis and the number of cases with veins increased in infarct area were also compared.Results The number of thrombosis at MCA showed on SWI was more than that showed on conventional MR sequences significantly (23 vs 12,χ2 =6.146,P =0.013),and was lower than that showed on MRA (23 vs 24,χ2 =0.052, P =0.820)slightly.Thrombosis at MCA trunk and its small branches were found in the meantime in 2 cases .The length of thrombosisshowed on SWI was longer than that showed on conventional MRI sequences (25.7 mm±9.4 mm vs 14.6 mm±8.5 mm,t=14.395,P =0.000), significantly and the number of patient with veins increased in infarct area showed on SWI was more than that showed on conventional MR sequences (21 vs 12,χ2 =4.1 78,P =0.041)significantly.Conclusion SWI has usefull application value in patients with hyperacute massive ischemic cerebral infarction.
