Combination of MRI and nanoparticles has a possibility
for visualizing the dynamics of cells in mouse brain and
previously we reported the time-lapse movie analysis
have a good feasibility to track the single-cell
migration in mouse brain. In this study, we improve the
temporal resolution of time-lapse MRI movie with SPIO-based
in-situ cell labeling and assess the difference of
velocity and direction of immune cell migration between
the healthy brain and ischemic-injured brain. We showed
that time-lapse MRI has a good possibility to track the
cell migration and assess the difference of cell
kinetics between normal and ischemic lesion.
