Perfusion Overview
CT perfusion evaluates blood flow and tissue perfusion. It supports rapid assessment of stroke and vascular disease. Students learn how perfusion imaging works.
Technique Use
Perfusion imaging requires precise timing and contrast administration. Proper technique improves accuracy. Students explore common protocols.
Clinical Applications
CT perfusion supports stroke evaluation and treatment planning. It helps identify salvageable tissue and guide intervention. Students learn how perfusion maps influence care.
Limitations
CT perfusion has limitations related to motion, timing, and contrast use. Understanding these helps avoid misinterpretation. Students learn strategies to optimize studies.
