TABLE 3: ADC changes of subcortical low-intensity lesions in 55 patients
| ADC (10−3 mm2/s) of Subcortical White Matter | ||
|---|---|---|
| SCLI (+) (n = 14) | SCLI (−) (n = 41) | |
| Lesion | 0.68 ± 0.10* | 0.72 ± 0.05 |
| Contralateral | 0.75 ± 0.08 | 0.73 ± 0.05 |
| Decrease (%)† | 9.3 ± 11.4 | 0.59 ± 7.59 |
| P value | <.00001 | >.05 |
Note.—SCLI (+) and SCLI (−) indicate patients with and those without, respectively, subcortical low intensity.
* ADC of subcortical low-intensity lesion was significantly lower than that of contralateral subcortical white matter (Student t test).
† Percentage decrease in signal intensity of the lesion to the corresponding area in the contralateral hemisphere.
