Regions of decreased ADC and CT density in 29 acute-stroke patients were superimposed on the corresponding magnetic resonance perfusion images. Mean values of ADC and CT density decrease were correlated with the corresponding relative changes of cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and volume (rCBV), mean transit time (rMTT) and time-to-peak (rTTP). The decrease of CT density was 1.2 +/- 0.6 Hounsfield units and showed a linear correlation with rCBF (0.42, p <0.01) as well as rCBV (0.62, p <0.01), but not with the prolongation of rMTT (1.43, p = 0.78) or rTTP (1.34, p = 0.26). Therefore, the reduction of rCBF determines the severity of the early ischaemic oedema (EIOE) on CT, as well as reduction of the ADC.
