Abstract It is well established that thrombolytic therapy increases the risk of secondary intracerebral hemorrhage in ischemic stroke
patients. However, the term “intracerebral hemorrhage” (ICH) covers a wide spectrum from tiny spots of blood to massive space-occupying
hematoma. We will review the etiology and clinical consequences of secondary hemorrhage after thrombolysis in ischemic stroke
patients and discuss the ability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to predict this phenomenon. MRI is a highly sensitive
tool for detection of hemorrhagic transformation after ischemic stroke. The definitions of a so-called symptomatic hemorrhage
after ischemic infarction differ considerably and will also be described. Attributing a causal relationship of a clinical
deterioration to a secondary hemorrhage is not easy and should be only addressed when it exceeds at least 30% of the infarct
volume. In other patients, secondary hemorrhage might be regarded as side effect of reperfusion within the region with the
most severe perfusion deficit. Cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) are a frequent finding in patients with leukoaraiosis and appear
to be a general marker of various types of bleeding- prone small vessel disease and a predictor of recurrent vascular events.
Current data do not support the hypothesis that the detection of CMBs is a useful diagnostic criterion for the exclusion of
patients with CMBs from thrombolytic therapy. However, an increased risk for the rare patients with numerous CMBs can not
be ruled out.

The aim in this work is to report a new method to calculate parametric images from a single scan acquisition with positron emission tomography (PET) and fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) in the human brain without blood sampling. It is usually practical for research or clinical purposes to inject the patient in an isolated room and to start the PET acquisition only for some 10–20 min, about 30 min after FDG injection. In order to calculate the cerebral metabolic rates for glucose (CMRG), usually several blood samples are required. The proposed method considers the relation between the uptake of the tracer in the cerebellum as a reference tissue and the population based input curve. Similar results were obtained for CMRG values with the present method in comparison to the usual autoradiographic and the non-linear least squares fitting of regions of interest. 相似文献
