Abstract: A photochemical reaction model of focal cerebral ischemic injury in rat was demonstrated by means of T2-weighted MRI. The NMR images were obtained by adding together the different T2-weighted data during raw data acquisition. The ischemic injury region cna be found clearly in the T2-weighted MRI images in one hour after the onset of the cerebral ischemia in rats. It is confirmed that the T2-weighted MRI approach has great potential in studying the cerebral ischemia.
