Diagnostic approach to ischaemic stroke - a review of imaging methods and their application in clinical practiceReview article

Petra Cimflová, Kateřina Vališ, Ondřej Volný, Jan Vinklárek, Michal Haršány, Robert Mikulík

Ces radiol. 2019, 73(3):150-159 | DOI: 10.55095/CesRadiol2019/022

Ces radiol. 2019, 73(3):160-166 | DOI: 10.55095/CesRadiol2019/023  

Most typical finding with diffusion restriction is acute ischemia, however, similar image can be frequently encountered in hematomas. Diffusion restriction can be also seen in highly cellular tumours, nevertheless, the total count of diagnoses with diffusion restriction is considerably higher.
