Objectives: Atherosclerotic stenosis of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) is one of the causes
of ischemic stroke, but aside from investigations using magnetic resonance angiography …

Objective:: To evaluate the characteristics of atherosclerotic middle cerebral artery (MCA)
stenosis by high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HR-MRI) and determine the …

OBJECTIVE: Recently, the technique of high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HR-
MRI) has been developed to depict intracranial artery wall. We aimed to compare the vessel …

Objective To characterize the vessel wall imaging findings and enhancement patterns in the
middle cerebral artery of patients with presumed atherosclerotic disease and recent …

ABSTRACT Background and Purpose. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been widely
applied in detecting intracranial large artery stenosis, but there have been few validation …

Background: Although black-blood MRI (BB-MRI) can identify plaques in the cervical carotid
arteries, this modality has not been applied in intracranial arteries. We imaged the lumina …

Intracranial atherosclerotic disease is increasingly recognized as a major stroke subtype
worldwide. Current diagnostic evaluation of atherosclerotic disease of the middle cerebral …

Purpose: The aim of this research was to investigate the relationship between remodeling
patterns and degree of enhancement in patients with atherosclerotic middle cerebral artery …

The usefulness of magnetic resonance (MR) angiography using the three-dimensional time-
of-flight method for the characterization of symptomatic middle cerebral artery (MCA) …

OBJECTIVE: Three-Dimensional Time-of-flight Magnetic Resonance Angiography (3D TOF
MRA) has been wildly used in the diagnosis of intracranial artery diseases, but it only shows …
