Predicting Cerebral Ischemic Infarct Volume with Diffusion and Perfusion MR Imaging
AJNR 23:1785-1794, Schaefer,P.W.,et al, 2002
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Diffusion and hemodynamic images are sensitive and specific for detecting acute infarction. DW imaging and CBV best predict final infarct volume. DW-CBV mismatch predicts lesion growth into the CBV abnormality. CBF and MTT help identify a dditional tissue with altered perfusion but have lower correlation with final volume.
