Abstract

Objective: To explore the diagnostic value of DWI in acute cerebral infarction.Methods: Thirty patients suspected of cerebral infarction were examined with T1WI,T2WI,Dark-fluid and DWI sequences and were grouped on the basis of case history.The manifestations of lesions,boundary and extent on all images were compared.ADC and rADC of the lesions were respectively measured and calculated.Results: The manifestations of lesions,boundary and extent on DWI were superior to those of convertional T1WI,T2WI,and dark-fluid image,and the value of ADC and rADC of the lesions decreased in all cases.Conclusion: DWI is highly sensitive and applicabele in the diagnosis of acute cerebral infarction.
