Example sentences for: dwi

How can you use “dwi” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • The simplest use as an inclusion criterion would include the presence of a lesion on DWI to increase the diagnostic certainty of ischemic stroke.

  • Selection of patients by DWI is also optimally suited for using the lesion volume change as a direct measure of the neuroprotective effect of the drug.

  • The appeal of MRI methods is that, whereas the standard CT examination of acute ischemic stroke will typically appear normal in the first hours after stroke onset, the methods of magnetic resonance angiography, perfusion weighted imaging (PWI), and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) provide information on arterial patency, tissue blood flow, and parenchymal injury from the earliest times after onset of ischemic symptoms in a brief, non-invasive examination.

  • If untreated, the lesion seen with DWI typically enlarges over hours to days and will progress to infarction.

  • Acute lesion volumes by DWI in 100 patients correlated significantly with acute clinical severity on NIH stroke scale scores ( r = 0.64) and with chronic lesion volume ( r = 0.79); the chronic lesion volume by T2-weighted MRI significantly correlated with chronic NIH stroke scale score ( r = 0.63).
