Image for perfusion imaging

perfusion imaging

Perfusion imaging is a medical technique that visualizes how blood flows through tissues, especially in organs like the brain or heart. By injecting a special dye and using advanced imaging methods such as MRI or CT scans, it provides detailed maps showing blood volume, speed, and flow patterns. This helps doctors identify areas with reduced blood supply, which can indicate conditions like strokes or heart problems. Perfusion imaging offers valuable insights into tissue health and can guide diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring of disease progression.
