The change of the apparent diffusion coefficient (
ADC)during the cardiac cycle in the brain are affected
by the regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF). To evaluate
hemodynamic-independent water fluctuaion, we corrected
the rCBF effect by using the ECG-triggered single shot
diffusion echo planner data itself. We corrected the the
changes of ADC (ADC) by the maximum ADC with b=0-200
having the highest correlation with the rCBF. There was
no significant correlation between corrected-ADC and
eCBF. Corrected-ADC makes it possible to obtain the
degree of fluctuation of the water molecules
hemodynamic-in the brain.
