FIG 4. rCBV (left column) and TTP (right column) images obtained immediately before (top row) and following (bottom row) placement of a stent in the patient’s left carotid artery. Initially the ipsilateral hemisphere exhibited delayed arrival times, but this reversed following treatment. The patient’s contralateral ICA was also somewhat stenotic, and this may be responsible for the inversion following stent placement.
