Abstract

Hypoxic imaging can exhibit dysfunctional but viable tissues in organs. Autoradiographic imaging using hy-opxic marker can identify ischemic penumbra. Hyopxic tissue revealed by PET may represent the ischemic penumbra in patients presenting with acute cerebral infarction, and there are some correlation between hypoxic tissue volume and neurological and functional outcome.
