| N | DWI | FLAIR (Signal) | EPI-FLAIR (Signal) | Conclusion |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 12 | − | − | − | No ischemic infarction |
| 10 | + | − | − | Concordant FLAIR–EPI-FLAIR, early stage of ischemic infarction |
| 26 | + | + | + | Concordant FLAIR–EPI-FLAIR, completed infarction |
| 2 | + | + | − | EPI-FLAIR discordant with FLAIR |
