Background and Purpose Hypothermia is potentially the most effective protective therapy for brain ischemia; however, its use is limited because of serious side effects. Although focal hypothermia (FH) has a significantly lower stress profile than systemic hypothermia (SH), its efficacy in ischemia has been poorly studied. We aimed to compare the therapeutic effects of each treatment on various short- and long-term clinically relevant end points.Methods Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to transient (45 minutes) occlusion of the middle cerebral artery. One hour after arterial reperfusion, animals were randomly assigned to groups for treatment with SH or FH (target temperature: 32 degrees C) for 4 or 24 hours. Lesion volume, edema, functional recovery, and histological markers of cellular injury were evaluated for 1 month after ischemic injury. Effects of SH and FH on cerebral temperature were also analyzed for the first time by magnetic resonance thermometry, an approach that combines spectroscopy with gradient-echo-based phase mapping.Results Both therapeutic approaches reduced ischemic lesion volume (P
