Severe ADC Decreases Do Not Predict Irreversible Tissue Damage in Humans
Stroke 33:79-86, Fiehler,J.,et al, 2002
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
In line with results from animal experiments, ADC decreases do not reliably indicate tissue infarction. Even severely decreased ADC values may normalize in human stroke, and it seems likely that ADC normalization depends on the duration and severity of ischemia rather than the absolute value.
