Intracranial haemorrhage can be a devastating disorder that requires rapid diagnosis and
management. Neuroimaging studies are not only required for diagnosis but also provide …

Background Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly used for the diagnosis of
acute ischaemic stroke but its sensitivity for the early detection of intracerebral haemorrhage …

Background: Hyperintense vessels (HV) on fluid-attenuated inversion recovery imaging are
frequently observed in acute ischemic stroke patients. However, the exact mechanism and …

Background and Purpose—Large vessel occlusion in ischemic stroke is associated with a
high degree of morbidity. When intravenous thrombolysis fails, mechanical thrombectomy …

Background and Purpose—In contrast to platelet-rich white thrombi, red thrombi in the heart
are rich in fibrin and trapped erythrocytes. The magnetic susceptibility effect of …

Moyamoya angiopathy (MMA) is a peculiar cerebrovascular condition characterized by
progressive steno-occlusion of the terminal part of the internal carotid arteries (ICAs) and …

Brain imaging provides an objective basis for the clinical inferences that direct individual
patient management in the acute stroke setting. A brain CT or MRI scan is required for all …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) vascular
hyperintensities (FVH) are commonly encountered on MR imaging studies performed shortly …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Although thrombolysis can be performed for acute
ischemic stroke (AIS) within 6h of onset, patients with an unknown onset time cannot receive …

Purpose To assess the value of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging parameters as surrogate
markers of stroke duration. Materials and Methods The study was approved by the Ethics …
