Regions of interest were placed in cortical tubers or polymicrogyric cortex and in the contralateral normal-appearing side in patients with malformations. In \u201ccontrol\u201d subjects, regions of interest were placed in the frontal and parietal lobes in both hemispheres. The rCBV and TTfm of the tuber\/contralateral side (rCBV\n                    <jats:sub>R<\/jats:sub>\n                    TSC and \u0394TT\n                    <jats:sub>FM<\/jats:sub>\n                    TSC) as well as those of the polymicrogyria\/contralateral side (rCBV\n                    <jats:sub>R<\/jats:sub>\n                    PMG and \u0394TT\n                    <jats:sub>FM<\/jats:sub>\n                    PMG) were assessed. The right-to-left asymmetry of rCBV and TTfm in the control group was also assessed (rCBV\n                    <jats:sub>R<\/jats:sub>\n                    Controls and \u0394TT\n                    <jats:sub>FM<\/jats:sub>\n                    Controls).\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    Results: There was no significant asymmetry between right and left rCBV or TTfm ( P&gt;0.05) in controls. There was significant reduction in rCBV\n                    <jats:sub>R<\/jats:sub>\n                    TSC compared to rCBV\n                    <jats:sub>R<\/jats:sub>\n                    Controls ( P&lt;0.05), but no significant difference in \u0394TT\n                    <jats:sub>FM<\/jats:sub>\n                    TSC compared to \u0394TT\n                    <jats:sub>FM<\/jats:sub>\n                    Controls ( P&gt;0.05).

The lower rCBV ratio of cortical tubers may be related to known differences in pathogenetic timing of the underlying abnormalities during brain development or the presence of gliosis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1080\/02841850701477686","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,12,9]],"date-time":"2009-12-09T07:31:39Z","timestamp":1260343899000},"page":"907-917","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Magnetic resonance perfusion imaging in malformations of cortical development"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"48","author":[{"given":"E.","family":"Widjaja","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Academic Section of Radiology, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"I.
