Brain CT perfusion images, including (a) time delay curve (TDC) map, (b) cerebral blood flow (CBF), (c) time-to-peak (TTP), (d) cerebral blood volume (CBV), and (e) mean transit time (MTT). On the TDC curve, mean peak time of superior sagittal sinus and bilateral middle cerebral artery perfusion was 50 seconds (blue line) and 35 seconds (red line), respectively, which was very prolonged compared to the non-CMS group (see Table 1).
