Diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging in assessment of prognostic outcome of stroke patients

Conclusion DTI can visualize the changes in the integrity and orientation of the white matter tracts that are affected by cerebrovascular lesions which cannot be detected by conventional MRI. By MR tractography, we can detect the pattern of white matter tract affection that offers a potential tool for correlating the clinical outcome with the imaging findings.
