Stroke is a serious healthcare problem with high mortality and long-term disability. However, to date, our ability to prevent and cure stroke remains limited. One important goal in stroke research is to identify the extent and location of lesion for treatment. In addition, accurately differentiating salvageable tissue from infarct and evaluating therapeutic efficacies are indispensible. These objectives could potentially be met with the assistance of modern neuroimaging techniques. This paper reviews current imaging methods commonly used in ischemic stroke research. These methods include positron emission tomography
