The authors assessed correlations among baseline perfusion and arterial transit time artifacts, cerebrovascular reactivity, and the presence of collateral vessels on digital subtraction angiography. Arterial spin-labeling MRI and DSA were compared with BOLD MR imaging measures of hypercapnic cerebrovascular reactivity in 18 patients with symptomatic intracranial stenosis. In regions with normal-to-high signal on ASL, collateral vessel presence on DSA strongly correlated with declines in cerebrovascular reactivity (as measured on BOLD MRI). These data support the use of ASL MR imaging rather than invasive DSA to assess the presence of collateralization, even for patients with internal carotid stenosis from nonatherosclerotic etiologies. Also, collaterals identified on ASL with arterial transit artifacts correlated with decreased CVR compared with regions not perfused via collaterals.

The authors describe a Lean Six Sigma project with the goal of reducing the relative use of pediatric head CTs in their population of patients with hydrocephalus by 50% within 6 months. The existing baseline imaging practice for hydrocephalus was outlined in a Kaizen session, and potential interventions were discussed. An improved radiation-free workflow with ultrafast MR imaging was created. Baseline data were collected for 3 months by using the departmental radiology information system and data collection continued postintervention and during the control phase. The improved workflow resulted in a 75% relative reduction in the percentage of hydrocephalus imaging performed by CT between the pre- and postintervention/control phases. The authors conclude that the lean interventions in the pediatric hydrocephalus care pathway resulted in a significant reduction in head CT orders.
