Intravoxel Incoherent Motion Magnetic Resonance Imaging Used in Preoperative Screening of High-Risk Patients With Moyamoya Disease Who May Develop Postoperative Cerebral Hyperperfusion Syndrome.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of preoperative intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) MRI for the screening of high-risk patients with moyamoya disease (MMD) who may develop postoperative cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS).

Methods

This study composed of two parts. In the first part 24 MMD patients and 24 control volunteers were enrolled. IVIM-MRI was performed. The relative pseudo-diffusion coefficient, perfusion fraction, apparent diffusion coefficient, and diffusion coefficient (rD*, rf, rADC, and rD) values of the IVIM sequence were compared according to hemispheres between MMD patient and healthy control groups. In the second part, 98 adult patients (124 operated hemispheres) with MMD who underwent surgery were included. Preoperative IVIM-MRI
