Abstract:
Intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) is the main cause of patients with stroke in China. How to accurately detect and identify vulnerable plaques through imaging examinations, and strengthen the prediction and prevention of ischemic stroke in patients with ICAS, is a key clinical problem that needs to be solved, and is also a current challenge. With the application of magnetic resonance vascular wall imaging in ICAS, imaging examinations provide useful information on the vascular structure and plaque stability at the stenosis in addition to the degree of stenosis. It has improved the ability to evaluate ICAS and promoted its development towards more accurate diagnosis and treatment.
