A significant prolongation of T2 relaxation time after induction of focal ischemia indicates the development of cerebral edema. However, the precise dynamics in the ultra-acute phase are yet to be clarified. We analyzed the changes in these signal intensities beginning one hour after focal ischemia/reperfusion.
The three vessel occlusion (3-VO) method (Yang & Nakajo et al. 2014) was used in C57BL/6J mice. Development of the infarct lesion with cerebral edema was analyzed using a 7-T Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system. T2-weighted coronal images were acquired using RARE (rapid acquisition with relaxation enhancement technique). The MRI scan was performed 60 minutes after reperfusion, and repeated every 30-60 minutes for a total of 9 hours. The signal intensities were normalized by the corresponding contralateral (intact) area to calculate signal intensity ratios. We selected the following four regions: 1. Lateral half of the infarct border zone; 2. Medial half of the infarct border zone; 3. Ischemic core, 4. Intact zone lateral to the border zone; according to the TTC stain performed 24 hours after reperfusion in the same brain.
A significant increase in T2-R was detected one hour after reperfusion at region-1 (1.099, P > 0.001), 2.5 hours after reperfusion at region-2 (1.108, P > 0.001), and 4 hours after reperfusion at region-3 (1.110, P > 0.001).
One hour after reperfusion, T2-R values significantly increased in the area peripheral to the ischemic core where most neurons survive, but not in the medial half (ischemic penumbra) or the ischemic core where most or all neurons die within 24 hours. Benign cerebral edema that develops in the area surrounding the ischemic penumbra was detected in the ultra-early phase after ischemia/reperfusion using 7-T MRI.
