In this pilot study of poststroke depression, the authors evaluated
regional cerebral blood flow and depression in 14 stroke patients. Volume
of ischemia was measured by two methods, which were highly correlated.
Depression scores correlated with lesion volume as measured by single
photon emission CT.
