Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: (1) inclusion criteria of patients: 1. 6 to 64 years old who can undergo MRI without sedative agents 2. diagnosed as bilateral or unilateral moyamoya disease according to diagnostic guidelines 3. no neurological deficit affecting the scores of neurophysiological tests (aphasia, agnosia etc) 4. modified Rankin scale of 0 to 3 5. informed consent obtained from patients and parents of patients under age (2) inclusion criteria of normal healthy volunteers: 1. 20 to 64 years old 2. no neurological deficit affecting the scores of neurophysiological tests (aphasia, agnosia etc) 3. modified Rankin scale of 0 to 3 4. no history of neurological disease

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. patients with quasi-moyamoya disease 2. contraindication of MRI examination 3. brain lesion other than moyamoya disease affecting MRI parameters (e.g. brain tumor, venous angioma) 4. judged as inappropriate participants by doctor-in-charge

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. Comparing diffusion MRI parameters (ADC, FA, Vic, Viso and OD of NODDI) with scores of neurophysiological tests( WISC or WAIS, WCST, stroop test, word fluency test, TMT, and the BIg Five Personal Inventory or NEO-FFI)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
2. Comparing diffusion MRI (ADC, FA, Vic, Viso and OD of NODDI) of patients with moyamoya disease and of age-sex matched normal healthy volunteers. 3. Comparing diffusion MRI(D* and f map of IVIM, and ADC, FA, Vic, Viso and OD of NODDI) and 15Ogas PET (CBF, CBV, OEF and CMRO2).
