| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To understand the pathophysiology and to develop a new therapeutic method for ischemic stroke, we performed transcranial diffuse reflectance imaging for a rat stroke model with near-infrared (NIR) laser illumination and examined whether spatiotemporal changes in tissue viability (development of infarction) can be visualized by the speckle pattern intensity associated with cellular motility in the tissue. After middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO), we observed that the speckle pattern intensity increased in the ischemic core with time later than ~30 min after MCAO, indicating decrease in cellular motility, and the region with increased speckle pattern intensity became infarction at 24 h after MCAO. These results suggest that the light scattering speckle pattern signal would be useful for monitoring spatiotemporal changes in tissue viability in rat brains after focal cerebral ischemia.
