مستخلص: Background: Crossed cerebellar diaschisis (CCD) is a phenomenon with depressed metabolism and hypoperfusion in the cerebellum. Using arterial spin-labelling perfusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging (ASL PWI), we investigated the frequency of CCD in patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and differences between patients with and without CCD. Patients and Methods: In patients with AD who underwent a standardized magnetic resonance imaging including ASL PWI cerebral blood flow was evaluated in the cerebellum, and brain segmentation/ volumetry was performed using mdbrain (mediaire GmbH, Berlin, Germany) and FSL FIRST (Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Brain Software Library). Results: In total, 65 patients were included, and 22 (33.8%) patients were assessed as being CCD-positive. Patients with CCD had a significantly smaller whole brain volume (862.8±49.9 vs. 893.7±62.7 ml, p=0.049) as well as white matter volume (352.9±28.0 vs. 374.3±30.7, p=0.008) in comparison to patients without CCD. Conclusion: It was possible to detect CCD by ASL PWI in approximately one-third of patients with AD and was associated with smaller whole brain and white matter volume. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
