CT Perfusion Quantification of Small-Vessel Ischemic Severity

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Cerebral blood flow (CBF) abnormalities are previously demonstrated in white matter disease. A gradation of change may exist between patients with mild and more severe white matter disease. An association between blood brain barrier dysfunction, increasing age and white matter disease is also suggested. The purpose of this study was to quantify and correlate white matter disease severity and CT perfusion (CTP)-derived …
