The authors regret that errors were published in Table 1. The correct table is below. The authors would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused. The ADC values reported on Page no - 605, Table 1. Following are the correct values. In paragraph 2 of results section (Page no - 605, 2nd sentence and 4th sentence), 2nd and 4th sentence after replacing corrected values of ADC may now be read as following: 2nd sentence: The ADC value in the right hemisphere in the vehicle treated rats 5.4 ± 1.2 × 10−4 mm2 /s was significantly (P < 0.05) lower than the normal contralateral hemisphere 7.9 ± 1.1 × 10−4 mm2 /s. 4th sentence: One way ANOVA revealed significant difference in the ADC values of the treatment groups [F(3, 11) = 6.306, P = 0.010].
