Objective Similar to perfusion studies after acute ischemic stroke, measuring cerebral blood volume (CBV) via C-arm computed tomography before and after therapeutic interventions may help gauge subsequent revascularization. We tested serial dilutions of intra-arterial injectable contrast medium (CM) to determine the optimal CM concentration for quantifying parenchymal blood volume by flat-panel detector imaging (FD-PBV). Methods CM was diluted via saline power injector, instituting time delays for FD-PBV studies. A red/green/blue (RGB) color scale was employed to quantify/compare FD-PBV and magnetic resonance-derived CBV (MRCBV). Results Contrast values of right and left common carotid arteries did not differ significantly at CM dilutions of ≥20%. RGB analysis of FD-PBV imaging (relative to MR-CVB), showed CM dilution altered the colors (by 16%), increasing red and decreasing blue ratios. Conclusion Diluting CM to 20% resulted in no laterality differential of FD-PBV imaging, with left/right quantitative ratios approaching 1.1 (optimal for clinical use).
