Human Brain Hemorrhage:Quantification of Perihematoma Edema by Use of Diffusion-Weighted MR Imaging AJNR 23:1322-1326,1267, Carhuapoma,J.R.,et al, 2002 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract We report a significant direct correlation between ICH volume and degree of ADC elevation in perihematoma and ADC values in contralateral corresponding brain tissue. These findings suggest a dose-effect interaction between volume and concentr ation of blood products and intensity of response that brain tissue exhibits in blood-mediated edema. Prospective natural history and interventional studies are required to confirm this biologically meaningful correlation in patients with ICH.
