Table 1. Comparison of Preoperative Perfusion CT Values of Potential Surgical Side in the Region of Middle Cerebral Artery and Those of Contralateral Side [mean±SD; median (P25–P75)].

Perfusion CT Values Potential surgical side Contralateral side z/t P
CBF (ml·100 g−1·min−1) 33.45(24.75–48.85) 50.47(34.8–96.82) −4.58* 0.0000
CBV (ml·100 g−1) 3.68±1.90 3.80±1.92 −0.74** 0.4648
MTT(s) 5.42(4.62–7.85) 3.84(2.08–5.97) 4.26* 0.0000
TTP(s) 20.23±4.17 18.58±3.62 3.30** 0.0021

CBF = cerebral blood flow, CBV = cerebral blood volume, MTT = mean transit time TTP = time to peak. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Normal distribution data were expressed as mean±SD while skew distribution of measurement data were expressed as median (P25–P75).* z value was derived by matched-pairs signed-ranks test, and ** t value was derived using paired t test.
