This study is about quantitative evaluation of blood-brain barrier stabilization effect of agmatine in rat models of transient cerebral ischemia using dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI at early stages to reduce the complications associated with thrombolytic therapy in ischemic stroke, and demonstrated the feasibility of DCE-MRI for the investigation of new therapies.
