Table 1.

Pixel Fractions within the Normal–Abnormal Boundary ROIs That Were Misassigned Due to Partial-Volume Effect (Group 1, n = 6) at 30 min postischemia

(a) Abnormal (b) In-between (c) Normal (d) Total to
(e) In-between to
(f) Normal, to
Abnormal Normal + in-between Abnormal Normal Abnormal In-between
ADC 0.32 0.50 0.18 0.30 0.03 0.52 0.03 0.21 0.57
CBF 0.16 0.34 0.50 0.24 0.05 0.44 0.15 0.18 0.41

Note. The two partitions that defined the normal, in-between, and abnormal pixels were, respectively, 0.69 × 10−3 and 0.53 × 10−3 mm2/sec for ADC and 0.3 and 0.7 mL/g/min for CBF (see Methods). There were ≈3000 HR pixels analyzed for ADC and ≈2000 HR pixels for CBF for all six animals. Pixel fractions of columns a–d are with respect to the total pixels, column e is with respect to the number of in-between pixels (b), and column f is with respect to the number of normal pixels (c).
