Behzad Azarmju M.D.:
Very low cerebral blood volume (VLCBV) is a measurement of [[hemorrhagic]] transformation degree in the tissue surrounding the lesion in the [[strokes]]. It is counted as one of the [[Penumbra_(medicine)|penumbral]] imaging procedures along with less commonly used methods such as [[diffusion-weighted imaging]] (DWI). These are used to predict if there is going to be a hemmorrhage after the treatment by [[tPA]]. In advanced centers, this measurement helps with using tPA beyond the standard time limit (4.5 hours) without risk of hemorrhage.<ref>https://ift.tt/2t4ylqn>
