Proven Identification of Brain Regions with Reduced ADC

The mismatch map provides a comparison between brain regions with substantial reductions in tissue diffusion in pink and regions with significant hypoperfusion in green as reflected by delays in contrast arrival time (Tmax delays). 

The mismatch map can also be configured to show if a patient meets imaging criteria for mechanical thrombectomy (MT).

This map shows the severity of the delays in contrast arrival times (Tmax), the volume of tissue with delays, and the Hypoperfusion Intensity Ratio (HIR) which is automatically calculated.

It offers a co-registered view of the diffusion-weighted images with the MR perfusion maps. No thresholds are applied and no volumes are calculated on this map. It allows a comparison between DWI and perfusion images.

The AIF plot displays the location automatically chosen by the software for the arterial input function (AIF) and the venous output function (VOF). The movement plots document how much patient movement occurred during the scan.
