Optimal injection rate and catheter size for brain perfusion computed tomography using non-ionic contrast medium in clinically normal Beagles

Abstract: OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of contrast medium injection rates and intravenous injection catheter sizes on the time-density curve (TDC) of brain perfusion computed tomography (PCT) images in clinically normal Beagles and provide a reference range for the perfusion parameters for clinical application of PCT in veterinary medicine. ANIMALS 5 healthy, sexually intact male Beagles. PROCEDURES All dogs underwent general anesthesia for PCT. Contrast medium (350 mg I/kg) was injected at 3 different injectio… Show more

“…In CTP, after a single injection of an iodine contrast medium, the change in pixel enhancement of the cerebral artery and vein can be measured in Hounsfield unit (HU) by placing regions of interest (ROIs) over the middle cerebral artery, dorsal sagittal sinus, and brain tissue and generating the time-density curve (TDC) (6,7). Then, a perfusion map can be obtained from the TDC, and the quantitative perfusion parameters including cerebral blood volume (CBV), cerebral blood flow (CBF), time to peak of tissue enhancement (TTP), and mean transit time (MTT) can be measured (8,9). MR perfusion can be performed using three techniques including DSC, dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE), and arterial spin labeling (ASL) and perfusion parameters such as CBV, CBF, TTP, MTT, negative enhancement integral (NEI), and k-trans can be derived.…”
