Results MR images and dMRI revealed the development of a highly significant increase in BBB permeability (P < 0.002) and ventricle size (P < 0.0001) among infected rats.
Results MR images and dMRI revealed the development of a highly significant increase in BBB permeability (P < 0.002) and ventricle size (P < 0.0001) among infected rats.
The number of voxels representing high ΔSI (bolus) muscle values in infected rats, relative to corresponding controls at each time point, showed a steady decline as infection progressed (Linear regression analysis, borderline significant, P = 0.05).
Compared to the control group, the total fraction of enhancing brain voxels was significantly increased during the full course of disease as well as in the terminal phase (6 to 48 hours, Two-way ANOVA, P = 0.0019 and 36 to 48 hours, P = 0.019), but did not quite reach significance during the developing phase (6 to 30 hours, P = 0.06).
