Book Chapter Description

The inflammatory response to ischemic injury contributes to the progression of tissue damage as well as processes of neural recovery and repair. Currently, the interplay between the neurotoxic and neuroprotective aspects of neuroinflammation after stroke is not well understood. However, the use of neuroimaging in human and animal studies has provided information regarding the timing and location of inflammatory processes following infarct, shedding light on the contributions of inflammation in stroke injury and recovery. In this chapter, we provide an introduction to neuroinflammation in stroke and summarize recent findings from neuroimaging studies of inflammation. Specifically, we review discoveries from dynamic contrast enhanced imaging, diffusion tensor imaging, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, positron emission tomography, and ultrasmall superparamagnetic particles of iron oxide.
