The anatomic distribution of the deep cerebral perforators is considered either a given or
subject to enormous variability. Most published overviews on this topic only report findings …

The basic patterns of the cerebral arteries development are highly conserved across
vertebrates. Historical and recent studies based on human embryos, comparative anatomy …

Background and Purpose—We sought to examine the feasibility of observing the
lenticulostriate arteries (LSAs) noninvasively by ultrahigh-field MRI with 7.0 T. Methods—We …

The purpose of this study was to analyze human lenticulostriate arteries (LSAs) obtained
non‐invasively by 7.0‐T MRI. A three‐dimensional time‐of‐flight (3D TOF) magnetic …

Hypertension, a major risk factor for stroke, is associated with altered arterial anatomy and
function; however, the limited resolution of current imaging techniques has restricted the in …

Background and Purpose Different studies already demonstrated the benefits of 7T for
precontrast TOF-MRA in the visualization of intracranial small vessels. The aim of this study …

Purpose To develop a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) protocol that visualizes both the
perforating arteries and the related anatomy in a single acquisition at 7T. Material and …

Objective: The lenticulostriate arteries (LSAs) are small penetrating branches which are
feeding the basal ganglia. Thus far, no noninvasive imaging method has been capable of …

OBJECTIVE Regional ischemic vulnerability of the brain reportedly differs between the
cortex and basal ganglia and has been poorly assessed in the setting of endovascular …

Object Anterior choroidal artery (AChA) aneurysms are difficult to treat, and the clinical
outcome of patients is occasionally compromised by ischemic complications after clipping …
