Analysis of intracranial atherosclerotic plaque enhancement using high-resolution MR imaging in patients with ischemic stroke

摘要

Objective To assess the enhancement feature of intracranial atherosclerotic plaque in the vessels supplying the territory of infarction by using high-resolution MR imaging.To analyze the correlation between the degree of plaque enhancement,time elapsed and the concentration of hypersensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP).Methods The characteristics of vessel walls and intracranial vascular stenoses were retrospectively analyzed in 81 patients with ischemic strokes.All subjects were imaged with a traditional stroke MR protocol and HR-MRI scanning for
