[Abstract] Objective: Diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) has lately been postulated as a complementary MRI method to stratify the heterogeneous damaged DWI lesion. Compare the ability of DWI and DKI predicting lesion transformation, to supplement the precise definition of infarct core area.Materials and Methods: Eighteen cases of ischemic stroke were recruited for our study, who had infarct on DWI at baseline, and had follow-up MR scans. Pre-defined target imaging time points, obtained on a 3.0 T MR scanner, were<48 h and≥30 d post-stroke. Drawing the range of lesion from acute DKI (MK mapping), DWI and final T2WI, and calculate the lesion volume. Relationship between baseline DWI, MK map and follow-up T2WI was analyzed using Spearman rank-order correlation test, and Kruskal-Wallis H test was used to compare the volumes among three groups.Results: There was no difference among the volume of DWI, MK map and follow-up T2WI (H=5.819, P>0.05). Follow-up T2WI infarct volume (766.3±1406.4) mm3 was correlated with both volume predicted with the MK map(905.8±1605.4) mm3 and baseline DWI volume (1642.5±3296.9) mm3, which showed baseline DKI (MK mapping) infarct volume had stronger correlation with final T2 infarct volume than DWI (r=0.977, P<0.001; r=0.548, P<0.05, respectively).Conclusion: Final infarct volume was closer to the lesion shown on DKI than on DWI, DKI can predict the final transition more accuratly.
