MR-based diffusion- and perfusion-weighted imaging (DWI/PWI) has become the standard imaging technique to assess the individual brain pathophysiological status in acute ischemic stroke. The finding of a "mismatch" with larger PWI than DWI abnormality is thought to reflect the presence of tissue at-risk of infarction, i.e., penumbra. However, there has been no detailed study of the quantitative relationships between perfusion and diffusion changes in stroke patients. According to the experimental concept of penumbra, the ADC would be expected to remain unchanged despite decreasing perfusion until a critical threshold is reached. We have tested this hypothesis directly in man.
