Fig. 4From: An Alternative Model of Laser-Induced Stroke in the Motor Cortex of RatsIllustrated assessment of infarct zone and brain edema 24 h following MCAO or laser injury groups compared to naïve rats. In Fig. 4a shows the assessment of infarcted zone following 24 h after laser and MCAO procedures (presentation by sections). Comparison of treatment groups with naive rats. In Fig. 4b shows the assessment of infarcted zone following 24 h after laser and MCAO procedures (presentation of the hemisphere average value). Comparison of treatment groups with naive rats. In Fig. 4c shows the assessment of brain edema following 24 h after laser and MCAO procedures (presentation by sections). Comparison of treatment groups with naive rats. In Fig. 4d shows the assessment of brain edema following 24 h after laser and MCAO procedures (presentation of the hemisphere average value). Comparison of treatment groups with naive rats. The data are measured as % to contralateral section/hemisphere and expressed as mean ± SEM. Red color indicate significance (P < 0.05)Back to article page
