"Background : Diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) and single photon emission computed tomog-raphy
(SPECT) can demonstrate ischemic brain injury within the first several hours after the onset of symptoms. We
investigated the utility of combined DWI and SPECT in the assessment of acute cerebral infarction. M e t h o d s :
Nineteen patients with acute middle cerebral artery territory infarction underwent DWI and SPECT within 12 hours of
symptom onset (mean, 9.6 hour). In SPECT, we defined abnormality as a perfusion defect region (perfusion ??30%
compared to a normal cortex) and an ischemic region (perfusion difference ??10% compared to a contralateral normal
hemisphere). The initial DWI and SPECT lesion volume ratios (lesion volume / hemispheric volume) were analyzed
with subsequent neurological deficits as determined by the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score
and Barthel index (BI). Results : There was a high correlation between clinical scores within 7 days and lesion volumes
determined by DWI and SPECT respectively (p<0.05). The lesion volumes detected by DWI and SPECT significantly
correlated with each other (p<0.01). Ischemic lesions on SPECT were larger in the group (n=10) with ICA occlusions
than in the other group (p=0.034). In 15 patients with cortical lesions, the ratio of perfusion defect volumes on SPECT
to lesion volumes on DWI was higher in the group with favorable outcome than in the group with unfavorable outcome
(p=0.01). Conclusions : Both DWI and SPECT are highly correlated with the severity of neurological deficit in acute
cerebral infarction. Furthermore, combined use of DWI and SPECT would be more powerful than either study alone in
predicting clinical outcome.
