None of the stroke patients, studied 24 to 43 hours after symptom onset, nor any of the controls exhibited areas of tissue hypoxia on 18F-fluoromisonidazole PET images. These findings may have implications for the treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage with neuroprotective strategies. | Gov't Doc #: | 10599802 | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/9195 | Journal: | Neurology | URL: | https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10599802 | Type: | Journal Article | Subjects: | Aged Aged, 80 and over Cerebral Hemorrhage.radionuclide imaging Female Fluorine Radioisotopes.diagnostic use Humans Hypoxia, Brain.radionuclide imaging Male Misonidazole.analogs & derivatives.diagnostic use Radiation-Sensitizing Agents.diagnostic use Sensitivity and Specificity Stroke.radionuclide imaging Tomography, Emission-Computed |
