Summary

This study used two advanced MRI techniques to look at how water and brain chemicals move inside cells after a stroke. Researchers scanned 24 stroke patients and 24 healthy volunteers to track changes over three months. The goal was to better understand what happens to brain cells during a stroke, which could help doctors design better treatments in the future. Participants had to have had a first stroke and be between 18 and 80 years old.
