Why Perfusion With MRI?
• A number of neurological illnesses can be traced to abnormal blood flow–Ischemic Stroke–Cerebral Neoplasia–Many, many others, from Alzheimer’s to MS
• MRI is heavily used already• It works!

Diffusion and Perfusion in Stroke
• DWI is now widely used• PWI is in increasing use
– No approved contrast agent– Most use some sort of timing map (e.g., time to
peak)– ASL continues its testing / development
• Desmoteplase or other innovations suggest MRI use may become more widespread
![Page 9: HST.583 Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging: …dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/51692/HST-583Fall...Cerebral MR Perfusion Imaging 2006 A. G. Sorensen MD MGH-HST Center for](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050315/5f776acea72d5c550b6cf4d9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Initial core ?= DWI LesionOr maybe CT edema?
Follow-up Infarct(can be variable)
Initial PWI Lesion
The so-called ‘ischemic penumbra’ --now accepted (too widely?)

Problems (and Potential Solutions)• Monitoring Treatment?• Closing the gap between imaging and clinical outcome
– Location matters!• MTT as currently calculated may be overestimating
due to delay– Choice of AIF? (delay, dispersion)– New CBF approaches: Local AIF, circular deconvolution
• Other markers besides perfusion– Microvascular status– Vasomotion
• Imaging Time: still too much time in the scanner

Monitoring Treatment with Diffusion / Perfusion MRI
• A number of clinical trials have DWI/PWI now as endpoints
• One new treatment: hyperoxia for ischemic stroke
• Evidence that treatment with 100% oxygen at room pressure widens the therapeutic window

Why doesn’t imaging better predict / improve outcome?
• Specificity of techniques– Not all lesions are equal
• The Real Estate factor:–Location–Location–Location

Why Perfusion MRI In Cancer?
• Correlation of angiogenesis with tumor grade
• Perfusion measures capillary hemodynamics, which may in turn reflect angiogenesis
• Measure: CBV = cerebral blood volumeCBF = cerebral blood flow

DCE MRI
•Dynamic Contrast Enhanced MRI•Rapid imaging during small dose of Gd•T1 based, not T2•Attempts to map “permeability”•Analysis: analytic versus empiric (‘curvology’)•Popular in assessing drug therapy

Mechanistic Insights from MRI?• Testing the “Vascular Normalization” hypothesis• Blocking VEGF should result in:
– Smaller vessels– Less permeability– Less edema– Decreased mass effect– Probably no survival benefit without combination therapy, though…

Summary
• Perfusion MRI: Active, and still going strong
• New developments to watch out for:• Vasomotion• Therapy monitoring (stroke, tumor)• Location
