PET Imaging of Crossed Cerebellar Diaschisis after Long-Term Cerebral Ischemia in Rats

Figure 2

PET images of [18F]FDG at day 0 (control), day 7, day 14 and day 28 after MCAO (a). Time course of the progression of the [18F]FDG PET signal () was shown as the ratio of the entire contralateral to ipsilateral cerebellar hemisphere. The upper right panel of the figure shows the selected brain ROIs for the quantification defined on a slice of a MRI (T2W) template (b). Neurologic outcomes before (day 0) and at 1, 3, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days after cerebral ischemia (c). compared to control, , and compared to day 1.
