Abstract
⺠A high prevalence of fixation artifacts are observed in fixed mouse brain MR images. ⺠Two artifacts from perfusion fixation are described and their causes identified. ⺠Hyperintense rim around brain occurs when using powder perfusates and high flow rate. ⺠Inverse contrast and cerebellar deformation occurs upon inadequate fixation. ⺠These artifacts are unacceptable for quantitative data analysis and must be avoided.
