Figure 4.

Color maps of group means for CBF and ADC. Both are functional parameters cerebral ischemia indicating cerebral perfusion and cytotoxic diffusion restriction. Severe cortical and subcortical hypoperfusion (CBF maps) over time was observed in both groups. ADC maps show the transition from imminent to definite cerebral infarction involving cortical and subcortical territories. No significant differences between the strains were observed. Error bars denote standard errors of the mean.
