Application Value of Diffusion-weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Acute Cerebral Infarction

Objective To explore the clinical application value of diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI)of magnetic resonance for acute cerebral infarction.Methods The results of DWI and traditional CT and routine MRI in 52 patients with acute cerebral infarction were analyzed and applied.Results In 52 cases,11 cases were ultra-acute cerebral infarction,41 cases were acute cerebral infarction,all cases were shown abnormal high sign on DWI,and DWI can show lesion scopes which may not be shown on routine MRI.Conclusion DWI is of higher sensitivity compared with routine MRI in diagnosing acute cerebral infraction detecting early infarction lesions,which is difficult to be displayed on routine MRI,thus offering reliable imaging data for clinical.
