The procedure presented quantitatively assesses thalamic lesions in the chronic phase of an ischemic episode. The structural MR images of 19 patients with ischemia in the thalamus were assessed by radiologic inspection. An independent rater allocated the damage to the thalamic nuclei. The assessments showed 89% accordance with the radiologic inspection (P < .001). This procedure ranks the extent of the damage to thalamic nuclei and accounts for postacute rearrangement of the neural tissue.
本文提出的方法定量评估了缺血性事件慢性期的丘脑病变。通过放射学检查评估了 19 例丘脑缺血患者的结构磁共振图像。一名独立的评分者将损伤分配到丘脑核。评估结果与放射学检查的符合率为 89%(P<0.001)。该方法对丘脑核损伤的程度进行分级,并考虑了神经组织的亚急性期重排。
