Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We analyzed the association between histopathologic findings and magnetic resonance images using sheep fetuses experimentally induced cerebral white matter injury (WMI) by ischemic insults. First, all lesions of focal WMI were clearly observed as at once a high intensity spot of T1 weighted image and a low intensity spot of T2 weighted image in the magnetic resonance imaging. Second, diffuse WMI lesion was possibly shown as a high intensity region of T2 weighted image in the subacute phase (2-5 days) after the insults. In addition, an electron microscopic analysis might be quite useful to understand and detect the over-maturity of myelination induced by diffuse WMI.
