We investigate the potential of cerebrospinal fluid
(CSF) based DWI-thermometry measured in the subarachnoid
space, where the CSF flow quietly changes comparing with
the lateral ventricle, to estimate brain temperature
(BT) in subacute carbon monoxide (CO) poisoned patients
who show the strong imbalance between perfusion and
metabolism in the brain. Our results suggested that the
higher BT measured in the subarachnoid space by DWI than
that measured in white matter by MRS might substantially
reflect the brain metabolism in the subacute CO-poisoned
patients because the CSF in the subarachnoid space
directly lies on the cortex.
