Preoperative Cerebral Oxygen Extraction Fraction Imaging Generated from 7T MR Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping Predicts Development of Cerebral Hyperperfusion following Carotid Endarterectomy
Editor’s Choice Seventy-seven patients with unilateral internal carotid artery stenosis underwent preoperative 3DT2*-weighted imaging using a multiple dipole-inversion algorithm with a 7T MR scanner. Quantitative susceptibility mapping images wereobtained, and oxygen extraction fraction maps were generated. Quantitative brain perfusion single-photon
