Amide proton transfer imaging was performed in several
hemorrhagic brain lesions including glioblastoma,
metastasis, and cavernous malformation. We found that
magnetic transfer ratio asymmetry in hemorrhage was
higher than those in enhancing portion, perilesional T2
hyperintensity, and normal appearing white matter in all
patients regardless of underlying pathology. We should
be aware of high magnetic tranfer ratio asymmetry in
hemorrhage for interpreting brain lesions with
hemorrhage.
