Diagnosis unspecified

Arm Description

Approximately 60 Moyamoya patients will be enrolled, and will receive arterial spin label MRI with Xenon contrast agent to assess collateral blood flow.

Approximately 60 acute stroke patients will be enrolled, and will receive arterial spin label MRI with Xenon contrast agent to assess collateral blood flow.

Approximately 30 healthy participants will be enrolled, and will receive arterial spin label MRI with Xenon contrast agent to assess collateral blood flow.

Approximately 60 participants with diagnosis unspecified will be enrolled, and will receive arterial spin label MRI with Xenon contrast agent to assess collateral blood flow.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Regions With Collateral Versus Antegrade Blood Flow (Sensitivity) Correctly Identified Using MRI With Xenon Contrast Agent (Specificity)
Sensitivity and specificity for MRI-based ASL measure of presence of collaterals was measured using digital subtraction angiography as a gold standard. Measurements were for 20 regions per patient were scored as either positive or negative for collateral flow. A positive value (results) means the region is supplied by collateral flow. Negative means the region is supplied by antegrade (normal) flow. Sensitivity measures the proportion of positives that are correctly identified as such. Specificity measures the proportion of negatives that are correctly identified as such.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Quantifying Collateral Perfusion in Cerebrovascular Disease-Moyamoya disease and stroke patients
Detailed Description
In the early hours following large vessel occlusion, the ultimate severity of the stroke is largely determined by the ability of collateral flow networks to supply blood to ischemic tissue via circuitous routes that bypass the proximal clot. Robust collateral flow can improve response to thrombolytic therapy and decrease the risk of intracranial hemorrhage. Despite their central importance, collaterals during acute stroke are poorly understood, largely because assessment has required an invasive imaging test, cerebral angiography. This proposal assesses whether a noncontrast MRI perfusion technique, called arterial spin labeling (ASL), can yield important information about collateral flow.
