CT Perfusion Imaging in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke: The Role of Premorbid Statin Treatment.
Background: Statins appear to be useful in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Our aim was to evaluate the association between premorbid statin treatment and CT perfusion characteristics of acute ischemic stroke.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of patients with acute stroke secondary to occlusion of large vessels in the anterior circulation was performed to assess collateral flow, ischemic core volume, and ischemic penumbra using CT angiography and CT perfusion maps. Fisher's exact test was used to compare baseline characteristics of patients in the two groups. The Wilcoxon rank-sum test for independent groups was used to compare all variables obtained for the two different groups with and without statin use.
Results: We identified 61 patients, including 29 treated with statins and 32 not treated with statins before stroke onset matched by age, gender, and vascular risk factors except for hypercholesterolemia. The statin group showed lower National Institutes of health Stroke Scale scores at onset (14 ± 6.1 vs. 16 ± 4.5; p = 0.04) and lower volumes of brain tissue characterized by impaired cerebral blood flow (CBF), cerebral blood volume (CBV), and Tmax9.5-25s; otherwise, no statistically significant difference was found in the volume of the Tmax16-25s between the two groups.
Conclusions: Premorbid statin treatment is associated with a favorable imaging condition of acute ischemic stroke in terms of ischemic core and ischemic penumbra volume.

期刊介绍:
TomographyTM publishes basic (technical and pre-clinical) and clinical scientific articles which involve the advancement of imaging technologies. Tomography encompasses studies that use single or multiple imaging modalities including for example CT, US, PET, SPECT, MR and hyperpolarization technologies, as well as optical modalities (i.e. bioluminescence, photoacoustic, endomicroscopy, fiber optic imaging and optical computed tomography) in basic sciences, engineering, preclinical and clinical medicine.
Tomography also welcomes studies involving exploration and refinement of contrast mechanisms and image-derived metrics within and across modalities toward the development of novel imaging probes for image-based feedback and intervention. The use of imaging in biology and medicine provides unparalleled opportunities to noninvasively interrogate tissues to obtain real-time dynamic and quantitative information required for diagnosis and response to interventions and to follow evolving pathological conditions. As multi-modal studies and the complexities of imaging technologies themselves are ever increasing to provide advanced information to scientists and clinicians.
Tomography provides a unique publication venue allowing investigators the opportunity to more precisely communicate integrated findings related to the diverse and heterogeneous features associated with underlying anatomical, physiological, functional, metabolic and molecular genetic activities of normal and diseased tissue. Thus Tomography publishes peer-reviewed articles which involve the broad use of imaging of any tissue and disease type including both preclinical and clinical investigations. In addition, hardware/software along with chemical and molecular probe advances are welcome as they are deemed to significantly contribute towards the long-term goal of improving the overall impact of imaging on scientific and clinical discovery.
