  • Title: Magnetic resonance contrast enhancement in cerebral infarction.
    Author: Elster AD.
    Journal: Neuroimaging Clin N Am; 1994 Feb; 4(1):89-100. PubMed ID: 8130955.
    Abstract:
    Contrast enhancement may aid significantly in the diagnosis, dating, and grading of cerebral infarctions. On MR imaging, four patterns of contrast enhancement may be distinguished: intravascular, meningeal, transitional, and parenchymal. Each pattern has a different appearance, time course, and clinical significance. The anatomic and physiologic mechanisms that give rise to these distinct types of contrast enhancement in cerebral infarction are discussed.
