This study investigated the capability of a length and
offset varied saturation (LOVARS) chemical
exchange-dependent saturation transfer (CEST) imaging in
early detecting intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and
ischemia and proved that LOVARS can identify and
separate ICH and ischemia at the early stage by
demonstrating opposite LOVARS signals. Therefore the
non-invasive LOVARS may be a new MRI technique for the
diagnosis of early stroke and may improve stroke patient
care.
