Objectives: To explore the significance of the hemodynamic parameters of Computerized Tomography Perfusion Imaging (CTPI) under the deconvolution optimization algorithm for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with acute cerebral infarct (ACI). Methods: A hundred and ten patients with ACI from December 2018 to September 2019 were selected for research, and CTPI was performed before and after Edaravone injection treatment. Then, the CTPI deconvolution algorithm based on the weighted adaptive (WA) total variation (TV) (WA-TV) optimization was constructed, which was compared with tensor total variation (TTV) and Motion-adaptive sparse parity (MASP). Brain Perfusion 4.0 was applied to obtain the relative time to peak (rTTP), the relative transit time of mean (rMTT), relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV), and relative cerebral blood flow (rCBF) of the core infarction area (CIA) and penumbra ischemic (PI). Results: In four parameters of rTTP, rMTT, rCBV, and CBF, the peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) of the WA-TV algorithm was higher than the MSAP and TTV algorithms, while the Mean Square Error (MSE) and Mean Absolute Error (MAE) were lower than MSAP and TTV algorithms (P<0.05); the parameters of rCBV (71.56±9.87), rCBF (43.17±7.06) of the CIA before treatment were higher than PI (23.66±7.22; 18.37±3.99), rMTT (124.83±9.73) and rTTP (122.57±7.41) were lower than the PI (183.17±10.16); 150.74±9.74) (P<0.05). After treatment, the rCBV and rCBF of PI were higher than before treatment, and rMTT and rTTP were lower than before treatment (P<0.05), and there was no obvious difference in rCBV, rCBF, rMTT, and rTTP before and after treatment in the CIA (P>0.05). Conclusion: Compared with TTV and MASP, the WA-TV algorithm performs better in noise reduction and artifact reduction. The CTPI parameters of rCBV, rCBF, rMTT, and rTTP are all important indications for the diagnosis of PI and ACI. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.37.6-WIT.4884 How to cite this:Fang B, Zhai H.

Background and Purpose— Patients with acute cerebral infarcts in multiple arterial territories (MACI) represent a substantial portion of the stroke population. There are no data on short-term outcome and in-hospital complications in patients with MACI. We compared patients with MACI with patients having acute cerebral infarct(s) in a single arterial territory. Methods— We analyzed 3343 patients with diffusion-weighted imaging-confirmed acute cerebral infarcts. MACI was defined as at least 2 acute cerebral ischemic lesions in at least 2 arterial cerebral territories. Patients with MACI were compared with patients with acute cerebral infarct(s) in a single arterial territory for relevant in-hospital complications and short-term outcome, namely National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale and modified Rankin Scale at day 7 after admission or at discharge when earlier. Results— A total of 311 patients (9.3%) met the definition of MACI. Both median National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (2 [1–7] versus 1 [0–4]) and modified Rankin Scale (3 [1–4] versus 2 [1–3]) were higher in patients with MACI. MACI was independently associated with higher National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale and modified Rankin Scale. Deep venous thrombosis, myocardial infarction, and any complications were more frequent in patients with MACI. Conclusions— In-hospital complications were more frequent in patients with MACI, which may adversely affect short-term clinical and functional outcome. Closer follow-up of patients with MACI during hospitalization may prevent such events and negative progression.
