    Extensive FVHs and low hypoperfusion intensity ratio. MR imaging obtained 110 minutes after stroke onset (NIHSS score = 12) in an 88-year-old woman. A, FVHs in 6 ASPECTS areas (insula, M2–M6), corresponding to a 6-point FVH-score. B, Thirteen-milliliter diffusion-weighted imaging lesion. Tmax map (C) with 85-mL Tmax >6-second lesion and 15-mL Tmax >10-second lesion (D) (HIR = 0.18). After intravenous thrombolysis, the 24-hour NIHSS score was 1, and the DWI lesion was 12 mL (not shown). The 3-month mRS was 1.

    Few FVHs and high hypoperfusion intensity ratio. MR imaging obtained 180 minutes after stroke onset (NIHSS score = 12) in a 56-year-old man. A, FVHs in the insula, corresponding to a 1-point FVH score. B, Ninety-four milliliter diffusion-weighted imaging lesion. Tmax map (C) with 91-mL Tmax >6-second lesion and 53-mL Tmax >10-second lesion (D) (HIR = 0.58). After intravenous thrombolysis, the 24-hour NIHSS score was 14, and the DWI lesion was 150 mL (not shown). The 3-month mRS was 3.
