The aim of this study was to assess the blood brain
barrier permeability in a rat stroke model induced by a
permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (i.e., pMCAo)
using dynamic susceptibility contrast-MRI at 48 hr. Our
findings demonstrated that a leakage corrected blood
volume indicated the disruption of BBB in ischemic
injury at 48 hr.
