What Sequences on High-Field MR Best Depict Temporal Resolution of Experimental ICH and Edema Formation in Mice?

Figure 2

T1- (a), T2- (b), and T2*- (c) weighted images in a mouse 24 hours after hematoma induction reveal a hypointensity that matched well with the hematoma size found on frozen section (d) and cryostat section stained with Luxol Fast Blue and cresyl violet [×10] (e). Again, T2*-weighted images need referencing with T1- and T2-weighted images for hematoma quantitation. Of note is an artefact on the left to midventral surface (c).
